I don't risk the $5 to lock them in. You can still lose and I can tell you a long story about a good friend who did.
Would you be willing to explain to me how this happened as I do not understand how a person could possibly lose more than the initial premium.

I don't watch stock prices daily either. The only time I look is when it is time to sell. Rolled everything out back in election debates 3 weeks too early but thank God I did.
How do you know when it is a good time to sell if you never check the markets? Seems to me that would not be the best method. Timing your sales on hopeing that it was a good time to sell after the fact, is similiar to using hope for the method birth control after having sex and hoping she doesn't get pregnant.
But I am more interested in how that individual lost money using puts.
