And I couldn't resist putting dual Awesome Oscillators on the chart.

I narrowed down the selection with a 20-day. Got to be willing to sell ITM in down markets.

I came out with a stripped-down simplified trading system.

Here's what I made for covered call Excel spreadsheets.

I think this covered call strategy is going to work out. Can usually sell an ITM strike price for a profit, can sell an OTM strike price if it looks more bullish, hopefully will never get stuck with a loser for long.

I quit using LEAPS and went to real stocks. Most people don't like LEAPS much. Hardly any are traded.

The 50-day RSI and 20-day moving average system kept me out of a lot of good trades, so I lowered my standards.

I figured if I'm going to be owning stocks and ETFs and hoping to make more than I lose I might as well sell covered calls.

It is theoretically possible to make good money trading options, but will you? I had a highly negative delta and the market crashed and I still lost money. I think I'll go back to ETF and stock ownership and try to avoid owning losers.

I had an ULTA put diagonal at the time. I had $89 profit locked in. Was glad I didn't have a call diagonal.

I've got 3-16-16 and 5-34-34 cloned together as my default chart and I can view each separately.

There was a discrepancy between the Barchart chart and the Barchart screener on Slow Stochastics and also on Fast Stochastics but not on Percent R, so I used a 20-day Percent R.

It seems like the big opportunities in diagonals just dried up and I had to get out of trading or get more aggressive and directional. I switched back to 3,16,16 and I put a 9,3,1 Slow Stochastic in for screening. I considered going to straight puts and calls or debit spreads, but it's hard for...

I decided to simplify and use just 5-34-34 MACD and 34-5-34 MACD. A comparison of Awesome Oscillators.

The more you study options prices the more you notice a small bargain here or there, but you have to have the capital to take advantage of it. There may even be a certain scanner that looks for arbitrage for you.

Textbook example of me having my own call Accelerator Oscillator and Awesome Oscillator and put Accelerator Oscillator and Awesome Oscillator. Also, I'm trying to keep a delta-neutral portfolio.

I got burned in IRBT calls using just the 3-16-16. I got to wondering if a 5-34-34 would have warned to use puts, and I think it would have. Notice the green histogram sloping downward heading for a fall. Likewise, a red histogram can be sloping upward heading for a rise. So, now I'm using...

I think it automatically gets exercised, but then I'm relatively new to trading options.

I was aware of this thread, but I traded whatever I wanted to anyway, but today tastyworks told me BYND has 287% interest rate on short shares. + 16,000.00 * 287.00% | *2.87 --------------- + 45,920.00 / 365.00 --------------- + 125.81 $125.81 does...

Now I'm using a 3-16-16 MACD setup and I think it's about the best indicator I ever had.
