Actually Tom, I don't want the stock to move beyond the range.

I want it to peak and fall repeatedly until I've extracted my entire option premium. For example, if you look at my earlier posts with ONSL. It was behaving beautifully until I got cold feet and exited the trade. I was a single trade away from being risk free. I wish I had stayed in because my fears of a nosedive did not materialize and I had to give up $3k of the $8k I made to get out of the position.

I have another stock in mind and as soon as it sets itself up, I'm jumping in. Having learned some valuable lessons from ONSL, I intend to stick with this one until it plays out.

Thank you for your words of caution.
