Thanks RR. I'm gonna soak that in some more. Got another question for you. Typically how many months out AND where are your strike prices on a trade. Do you pick 1 month out or two months out or longer? Do you aim just above the current price for your strike price. (I mean in the money but just barely.) For instance, I would be looking at Feb calls or puts and right around the current price. Are you further out and further in the money than that? Current month ATM options usually have the most trade volume and that is usually where I had been trading. But then they evaporate rather quickly when I'm wrong. (Even when I'm right but my timing is off by a day.) -QuestionBuoy
