For options I've been trying flip weeklies fast for the big monies available, but that hasn't materialized so far, lol. I haven't been active with trading stocks for some time, but sense the time is finally ripe for me to do so (was waiting for the market to confirm a breakout versus last summers highs.) Probably waited to long.
I guess one can argue that going in the money with quality monthly options for less lucrative plays (not that making 50% for a week or two hold isn't lucrative) is something to consider. Selling an option that is way in the money at a discount isn't a bad way to win, right?
