Weeklies are always more risk, quicker reward.
The closer you get to expiration, the more time decay affects the option price.

For instance, if you had say weekly AAPL calls for 540 @ 1.00 an hour before close on that Friday and AAPL is currently at 538.....
Your option price will continually head to $0.00 as it approaches the close if AAPL stays exactly where its at.

All my posts are just opinions and are not buy or sell recommendations.
