Options Traders: Consider Puts not Calls

When trading options the focus should be on puts, not calls. Why? Because price drops faster than it rises. For example, on page 756 of my book, Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns, Second Edition, Table 49.2 for symmetrical triangles says that it took price 124 days to climb an average of 31% after the breakout, but it took price 45 days to drop 17%, both in a bull market. The drop is over twice as fast as the rise. And this is not an isolated example.
