  2. Good morning. I have mentioned in the past that the earnings trades do not really work for me because I have a full time job and can't create and monitor the orders during the day. I have been doing some of the theta based trades on a very small scale such as calendars, long butterflies, diagonals, and ICs. HOWEVER, I don't use much of my portfolio because of the potential for very large losses. On SO, you balance your theta trades with some vega and gamma trades like the earnings straddles/strangles/RICs. Again I can not effectively use these trades for balancing. Does anyone have any suggestions on a vega/gamma trade that could be opened for a week, weeks, or a month and not so heavily managed, but provide protection in a large market move? Obviously I'd want to minimize theta decay. Thank you!
