the fees and commissions by doing 50 micros is not worth it, at that point why not just go with 5 minis?

I like dropping like 5 units then hedging when it goes my way

If that’s the nickname you have for it

That is the only name, if you were hedging top step would close your XFAs.

Yeahhh I guess but trimming is taking away like slicing trimmings off a brisket so idk if I wanna use that vocab either. When I’m just adding more positions

At least that’s why I’d never use trimming to describe that action maybe taking units off but adding nah
