Velo pardon my ignorance but I am really interested in hearing more about time decay as it relates to SPX puts from your experience. You mentioned they lose close to .25/day around this juncture for April. At what point does this become more intense? Obviously this relates not only to out of the money puts getting weaker but also to in the money puts increasing in value at similar intervals??? Just trying to figure out when the risk/reward is overcome by time decay. In other words when May puts may be a healthier alternative.
