I find myself always feeling "itchy" when trading options, in plain terms, it's the fantasy of using a small amount of money to bet on big volatility. Especially when the market is dull or there's a heated debate in the group about a hot topic, I want to click and buy more. But time value is quite cruel; if you don't move it, it will slowly eat you up, like paying rent every day—the longer you stay, the more you lose.



On the other hand, sellers seem like landlords collecting rent, but it's not free money either. When a sudden spike hits, the "rent" you've accumulated might not even cover the loss all at once. Recently, with blockchain games' inflation, studio involvement, and the spiral of coin prices, I understand even more: time isn't on the player's side; the longer you drag it out, the more diluted it becomes. Now, I prefer to wait until emotions are outrageously high and the depth is thin before considering being on the seller's side... Of course, I also have to accept my fate—don't be greedy for that tiny time fee and sell yourself into "infinite liability."
