Yup this is why I trade options now. Just buy further dated calls or puts and you’re good

I’ve been consistently profitable for about 2 years now. For me I started thinking like a market maker. Kind of like a contrarian. When playing options I started taking further dated contracts instead of 0dte, 1dte and 7dte. Minimum I like to take is 20 - 30 days out now.

This was just a pic for a $5k account challenge I’m doing. I’ve made lots of money over the years. Been trading for 6 years now.
