If you're only writing puts on issues you'd be willing to own then rolling only makes them cheaper if and when you're assigned and it puts more premium in your pocket too!

When do you decide to do the roll, and what would you typically roll over into? Are you rolling to an equal number of puts or more?

My problem with immediate rolling is I base most of my investment transactions on momentum. The stock is most likely in a downtrend when you would play the roll. I don't want to try and catch a falling knife. My stop and rest strategy protects against this a bit. I rest until it appears the falling has ceased (at least a few days). With the roll, you can dig further and further into your cash reserves if the stock keeps dropping and you keep rolling.

So I guess I essentially roll, but I don't do it immediately. Delayed roll is my game.
