Strictly speaking, when you buy one month and sell another, you do not have a naked short but are covered by the long option. Since the difference can only go to $0 realistically in a well traded set of options, you have limited your liability.

They don't make enough heart medication for me to go short futures. Many, many years ago I covered my 10 short corn futures contracts the day before corn went limit up for about 3 weeks straight (looks like that might happen again???). That day was the last day I traded futures!
