May was another great month, bringing in $7,474. We were mostly focused on a volatility trade this month. The market model started out bullish and we placed a directional bet, but this was thwarted when Trump abruptly fired FBI director Comey. The market made a second move down when Comey later revealed that he had kept detailed notes on his conversations with Trump. This was the day we placed our volatility trade.

Although we lost our directional bet, we were given something even better- a volatility trade, which allowed us to collect about 13% over a two week period. We also won all of our income trades, bringing our total income for the month to $7,474.
