Hi VoyK, About the Option Investor seminars: When I attended in March, it was a three day seminar, with an optional fourth day called "options bott camp" which went through all the fundamentals. I attended all four days and recommend the boot camp to anyone who doesn't have a good grasp on the greeks (delta, theta, gamma...). They may have changed the structure of the seminar since then, however. Selling naked puts is really not a terribly sophisticated or risky thing, by the way. Selling naked calls is far more risky, something I don't do. There are so many ways to trade options, though. If what you're doing works for you, then stick with it and hone that strategy. If the market changes and it becomes less effective, then you can look around for other strategies. As for your early investing years in OTC:BB stocks, I think if we were honest, many of us dabbled in those issues. It's the smart ones who learn their lessons and move on!
