OX, I haven't had a chance to post, but I agree that rolling is the big problem. I had looked at the consequences of a nominal 5 percent move up and down from month to month and you end up with some very ugly scenarios in rolling from month to month. It appears that you either end up rolling fairly deep ITM short-term options with little time premium or end up with the position being under water for quite a while as you lose more on the long side than you gain on the short side. I need to read more on diagonal calendar spreads to determine all of the issues. Regards, Dave
