Hope you show me how it's done trading the shorter term.
I am new to this, only been option trading about 10 years, but always a small part of my portfolio. I find short time periods easier to understand and predict. It seems easier to project 6 weeks than 6 months. Many of my trades are between quarterly reports. Longer time periods are always exposed to 1 or more quarterly reports which may contain surprises. From what I understand, the decay curve is steepest right before expiration. That is why I usually stay less than 60 days. Perhaps if I live and trade long enough, I will learn how to profit from longer options. I am open to the concept.
