It happens, that’s why the risk reversals are so good because you’re getting paid to wait, you’re less likely to get shook out

Thanks for this great write up. I worry a lot about the risk of selling puts. I.e. what if the market crashes. I suppose you need to exercise appropriate risk management in sizing and number of calls?

Just remember you will see trends break before a decline happens, simple as that

I got out from CPNG way too early, wasn’t convinced to the company. Although with NEM, I sat patiently all the way. Thanks James!

Nice work mat! A big mistake a lot of investors is make is they get impatient on short timeframes, you gotta see where the options flow is pointing and give yourself as much Time as needed
