I haven't figured out what's better, buying 1 or 2 contracts that are more expensive at the money or 10 for cheaper out of the money. Ya figure a $10 move will get ya near $1000 even a $2 move will get you $200 vs. you have to hope the move is far enough to get to your OTM options for it to pay. Just a point to ponder on. I seem to be having better luck sticking near ATM with less contracts.
