This video covers position sequencing, a framework for staggering entry dates two to three weeks apart so expirations land at different calendar points, income events become regular, and no single bad market day forces multiple simultaneous decisions. It requires no strategy change, no added complexity, and no additional risk — just a deliberate shift in how and when positions are opened.
