Bob, thanks for your thoughts. You said "looks like we need to be patient again"
short term patience [weeks or a few months] is all I can afford at my age.
Options illustrate that well because they include a time value. Stocks do not.

I had sold some NFLX May $70 puts and since that stock closed below the strike, expected the put to be exercised. Did not happen. The put owner may have thought he can sell the stock for more than $70 Monday
