I do some stock option trading, usually some form of spread instead of unhedged long positions.
I post some of my spreads on the message board athttp://messages. yahoo. com/Business_%26_F…

At the moment, just buying puts on junk that’s bombing and riding it down.
In the past I have done buy-writes and straddles.
I’m also looking for some promising vertical credit spreads.
I trade non directional with options, this is done by using spreads such as calendars spreads and iron condor. The overall objective is using time decay to my benefit. It’s a great way to generate monthly income and doesn’t require too much of my time.
Since last September, I have been buying deep in the money LEAPS when the market dips. I then sell calls against those LEAPS each month to generate income.
Relatively safe strategy that has been working well. I’m up around 17% since September.
