Total defined risk for these trades is currently at 36.8% of the account net liquidation value. This risk is broken down into the following groups:

• 17.1% of net liq - DOTM BWB - hedges
• 19.7% of net liq - core BWB (all are at the target size of 5 contracts)

18 trades have been closed this year...12 wins and 6 losses. Return on the account for the year is at 3.19%.  Total win rate is at 67%.  The win rate on the core trades is at 71% and within the expected range. Of the 6 open trades, 3 are core and 2 of the core are currently up money.
