kaka You can define your maximum losses and minimize your risk by writing iron condors instead. Also, writing against the indices instead of a single equity minimizes the risk of large swings due to events relevant only to a single stock. I've been doing exactly this. My preference is an index like you said but I'll play large healthy companies as well. So far I've only found a small number of issues with options that trade on 1$ strike increments and also allow bid/ask on penny increments. QQQQ $1 Strike, $0.01 inc INTC $2.5 Strike, $0.01 inc Anyone know of any others?
