Two people sell the same put on the same dip.


Person A: 1 month duration. Collects $365.
Me: 1 year duration. Collect $2,500.
Stock rips 50% over the next year.
Person A made 50%... on $365.
I made 50%... on $2,500.
Same trade. Same conviction. Wildly different ROI.
Short duration forces you to keep guessing the next 30 days over and over.
Long duration lets the company's earnings do the heavy lifting while you sit still.
The lazy trade is the better trade.
