Short-selling DITM options

[marsman]

Hi,
isn't it a good idea to short-sell deep-in-the-money (DITM) options?...

Update:
No, a 2nd thought says me that it's a silly idea... So, forget it, folks, sorry...

Yes, of course

Shorting OTM options is a foolish idea - it's like picking up pennies on the freeway. You will get hit eventually.
