Tried this for 2 years and broke even at best. It takes a bit of effort to understand the system and as a techie I found it interesting. It's easy to get the option's premium, that you get to keep , and it even seems like you're going to make a killing but then things turn against you and you lose. The down side is fast and hard so it's easy to lose your gains in no time. Then you're just trying to get even. It not worth the time and money. I don't recommend it to any one.
