Looking at GOOG 106 and KO 60 calls today

I meant the 30-45+ dte trades. That's a lifetime in the current market. Most everything is 1 or 2 weeks for me. right now.

I’m still selling neutral delta strategies at 45 +/- DTE, but with REALLY wide strikes - and I’m staying FAR away from high beta, speculative stocks. The goal there is to capture 50-60% of max profit and close them (if they’re not challenged of course). Like you, I’m also staying closer in with directional plays - even though the gamma risk gets frisky below 10 days.

I meant to save a news piece that spoke about the number of 2 to 3 standard deviation moves we’ve had this year. It’s made (seemingly) high probability plays not so high probability at times. I’ll post a link if I can find it again.
