Jon,

I go as far out as possible, with the least amount of time exposure possible. Reward isn't the most critical part for me, but risk management is. I usually run scans about 2 weeks prior to expiration to see whats there and the % returns. I try and enter with a minimum return of 5% and may risk a play with a higher return only if the odds are significantly in my favor. Sometimes I wait until the last week to determine entry points if the market direction is unclear. The plays can change at any time depending on market factors.

Good Trading

Dave
