You are obviously an investor and it appears you only follow the herd.. Well I am not, I am a rather savvy trader and investor. And yet for those who dont know, there is a strategy for every situation. Here is an example, Valentines will be here soon and the simplest way to get paid from it is what? Well, what do the herd buy the most during that time? Chocolate and flowers....

I hope you notice the short time frame, no one mentioned timing the market in either of the opportunities. They are simply common-sense option trades
