Wheeling SPY in sim before doing it live. already learned something annoying

been reading about the wheel for months. Feels like the most "can't lose" strategy when you're just watching youtube videos about it Decided to actually run it on a trading game sim first before committing capital. 30 DTE CSPs on SPY, 0.3 delta, the usual boring stuff First week was great. collected premium, felt like a genius second week SPY dropped 2% and I'm sitting in a sim position that's red by more than the premium I collected obviously I knew that could happen. but knowing and feeling it are different things. Seeing those red numbers even on fake money made me realize I was way too confident about getting assigned at a strike I "didn't mind owning" Sim doesn't teach you the real emotional side but it does expose holes in your thinking before real cash does. I would've been that guy panic closing a CSP for a loss if I went live immediately gonna run it another month. see how it handles chop. the boring stuff is the point I guess
