I would never recommend that. Home run hitters eventually loose. Base hitters survive.

If you have been reading my posts, you will note that I seldom buy options. I am ALWAYS short options. I do combinations also- spreads, strangles, etc. all designed to capture option premium.

My strategy is to get a consistent weekly income off this market. If someone were to keep 10 percent of his capital in out-of-the-money calls, as suggested, he will eventually loose 10 percent of his capital. It's almost that simple.
