You probably have already discovered the second secret:
time. Only write options that have a small amount of time before
they expire. If you remember, you should never hold options in
the last month before expiration. For the writer, write options
that have less than one month before expiration.
Avoid writing options that have more than two months before
expiration. Option premiums collapse during the last month
to the advantage of the writer. Your goal as a writer is to stay in
an option position as short a period of time as possible. The more
time you give the position, the more chance you have to get
bitten.
