You're the master put seller here! You could probably write a book!!

My trouble with put selling is it ties up capital. For example, if I sell a put on stock A and stock B crashes, I want the cash to buy B or A.... whatever is a better deal or even both... maybe not a real issue but for me it has been a mental road block so I stick with my nets.

I'm actually still in a period of over allocation to stocks as I take profits on Explore Stocks but my core portfolios... it is hard to sell something yielding 2%+ to buy money funds yielding 0.42%..... so everything is still way high in stocks as I sniff around this week to see what else to trim a bit.

Good news is SOME of my leading indicator stocks, like FNSR, are going up even on down days like yesterday and so far today...

perverted H&S plus a cup w handle breakout AFTER testing the dashed green line from above, no?

BTW, have you noticed others around SI now say "testing from above" after a breakout or fooling around that line... or stuff like that these days?
