    Also don’t scam old people and don’t mention GOD when you sell crap. I was always wandering why Karen the Super Trader was shut down (she wasn’t running that much money) until I listened to her interview where every second word was GOD.

    How to short the S&P using options? Day & swing puts

    I think the idea is to catch a quick pop to get the option into ITM for a break even trade. It’s similar/related to trading whole numbers. I don’t think it has anything to do with the Greeks, as @Dustin pointed out.
