Question from Dylan Harris - Hi, I started trading options about a year and a half ago and got burned a few times which made me realize I did not know nearly what I thought I did and sent me back to the drawing boards. I have spent the time since then learning as much as I can about different options strategies and trying them in virtual accounts. I have come to the conclusion that diagonal spreads fit me pretty well. The question I have is whether there are ways to use delta as a trigger to (in the case of diagonals) roll the short strike down and/or out and if so how successful have these been in implementation and which brokers have them? Thanks! Dylan
