Anyone trading short vol strategies through the spring probably got hit pretty bad. Long-term, it all works out. I made 20% last year but I gave about half that back in this year's unusual vol shock.

Here is a guy who has made a nice return long-term just selling SPX verticals mechanically. He does have other forms of passive income, so he diversifies outside of the options market alltogether. I have seen similar strategies on the Russel (RUT) and other variations on SPX that also test out well.

Here is an ebook by a guy who made classic tastytrade style earnings trades and tracked his long-term results. Nothing really new in the book but it is nice to see real world proof that things work outside of a backtest or theory.
