Jerome, Not up short...just seeing patterns that aren't really there...lol... I must have too much time on my hands... I always end up digging into the details of things. The human mind is very good at seeing patterns...some that don't exist. I tend to keep my sales to short time options (4 to 5 weeks mostly, sometimes a little longer if I am very interested in the position.) I also usually back them up with a longer term, lower strike Option (Diagonal Spread) instead of the underlying stock, to lower my carrying costs. That, of course, comes with higher downside risk on a percentage basis. Ira
