..........There is an unbelievable amount of open interest in alot of options these days. I've been trading options for twenty years now. You should have seen it back then if you think they are not liquid nowdays.

Premiums on options these days are very high compared to years past hence it's more difficult to make serious money with them.

My advice to you is to be very careful with options. They are a great way to make enormous amounts of money when you either have a sure thing and/or inside info. If you don't have either one of those, better off sticking to the stock.

I truly believe it takes a few decades for a person to have the experience and knowledge needed to make consistent money in the markets. Especially options.

Just my two cents...........

P.S. AMAT at $30 after the crash..........that's a sure thing!
