nah it doesnt have to be complicated. most of what i do is single leg too, just on the selling side. the rule that keeps it simple for me is i only sell a put if i'd actually take the shares at that strike, cash sitting there to cover it, no hoping it stays otm. like i've got FWDI puts out at 7.50, if those got assigned my effective would be 6.09 and i'd be fine with that. that part was decided before i sold them, not when it goes red. buying straight calls and puts is harder imo because you n
