OK guys - I fell for the weekly option trade. I did some GE 16 short put contracts for next Friday. I only did 20 contracts as I like to dip my toe before I swim. This has the potential to pay $.15 or approximately 1% for a week. If it goes bad - hey - I will own 2000 more shares of GE. I wonder how the roll of one week options works? Has anyone here done this game yet?

Last week at the Rama Casino - this week at the Weekly Option Casino. Frankly, if the stock is something one does not mind owning near the current price I see this as an ok risk.
