Mozoneman, Here is a calendar spread scan or setup to look for with two weeks or less to run until expiration for the short side (current conditions). Shorting the front month and buying the subsequent month same strike options with the strike at least one strike OTM and the debit equal to greater than the premium received for the short option. If your directional bias is bearish then use the puts and if bullish use the calls. This should give you an excellent risk/reward and favorable profitable range on the underlying. Don't expect to find many of these situations. Looking at the option chain for NTAP that Rose just mentioned almost meets this criteria but the bid/asked spread on the options looks scary if you must exit. Regards, Ken
