Being diversified is almost a nessecity when selling options, from what am learning. I am learning more all the time about selling. You people help me much.
I have much on paper for my own education and only have 4 in a live account.

At the current time of the year, I consider selling options in the grains, especially in corn, as high risk trades. In case there is more (less) rain in the weather forecasts for the US (South Americas) for the next couple of weeks, corn price will move up sharply, as COT data is bullish. The same is true for wheat.
Meat markets currently are hard to predict. I prefer selling strangles in such situations.
Clump risk is high, as these 4 options are closely correlated with each other.
