Electric, take the time to study the options mm for at least one cycle on hyped-up or thin-float or very volatile stocks before trading the options. One should do this whether one buys or sells options.

A bad case I recall from days gone by was a mm who liked sleeping in late. Sometimes did not open the options for trading until 1/2 hour after market open ... and I was freaking out watching my money on the line. Couldn't even enjoy my morning coffee.
