Stop acting so geeky. “Cerry” and “corresponding put” like your gonna talk about opshun Greeks soon. Nerd.
I'd be willing to bet that at 67 I'm one of the older members here. I took an interest in 1980, but nothing serious. Never did well, but enjoyed it. Now, I remind myself that if I was meant to be really good at this, it would have happened years ago. In retirement, as in all of life, really, you need to stay active physically, spiritually and mentally. Options keep my mind working. Sometimes I mix Covered Calls with Verticals and/or Diagonals. Lotsa laddering. I do it at a level I'm comfortable with. Never Naked. I have about 30 underlying with various Options. I follow about 50. Every week I'm rolling either up or out, adjusting. Easily well over 50 orders a week. Lately I've been topping 100. This week I replaced the Assigned HD Verticals, took some new postitions this week and added to some existing. WMT, TSLA, RIOT, OKLO are intersting to me. I enjoy it, to me, it's fun. Enjoy your Holiday.
Believe it or not, we are here to help..Just ask, it's good to bounce things off of other traders You are 67 years young!! Happy Thanksgiving
