BEST OPTIONS STRATEGY FOR CONSISTENT INCOME -

OPTIONS WHEEL STRATEGY

Everything to know about this strategy I'm posting in this thread.

(1/12)

Step 1: Stock Selection

1. For this strategy you're going to have to choose some stocks that you think will be doing well in the future/long term.

2. Stock must be in an uptrend.

3. Stock options should be liquid enough to trade in.

4. List of stocks attached

(2/12)

Step 2: Which option to sell?

1. Sell put at a support according to charts.

2. Sell put at a strike far away from the spot where you think the probability of the stock falling will be very very low.

3. Sell put at a price where you're willing to buy the stock at.

(3/12)

Step 3: What to do when in profit/loss?

1. If in profit you can just roll up the puts thereby increasing the ROI or shift to other stocks to make more profit.

2. If in loss take delivery of the shares equivalent to the lot size in cash market.

(4/12)

Step 4: What to do after taking the delivery?

1. Sell calls to lower your cost price of the stock. For eg, you took delivery of Reliance at 1900, sell 2100 CE which is about 10% away.

2. Keep doing this till your CE expires ITM and then give delivery of your stock away

How to avoid blowing up your account trading OPTIONS
(A thread)

1. Becoming consistently profitable trading OPTIONS takes practice and discipline.

2. Trading Options is similar to trading stock, YOU are in control of your profits per movement (up or down) in the underlying.

3. Buying a CALL- You pay a Premium price based on the STRIKE price you choose. With a call you get paid when the stock moves up

4. Buying a PUT- You pay a premium price based on the STRIKE price you chose. With PUTS you get paid when the underlying stock price goes down

5. Premium price goes up when the trade moves in your favor (call betting upside, put betting downside movement)
6. The goal is to buy a premium and resell it for a higher premium when the trade works
7. Like basic stock trading, you want to scale in and out of your position

9. People see cheap premium and tend to pick those, not knowing in reality they are risking more!
10. Don’t let the premium price dictate which strike you chose.. the higher the premium, the less risk/ volatility that trade will see!

11. When day trading options, you are essentially trading DELTA
12. Delta is what your premium will pay per dollar movement in underlying.
Ex. Delta .5 pays 50c per dollar movement in underlying
So if original cost =50$ premium,
1$ move up in underlying pays .50 or 100% trade

Topic: HOW TO TRADE IN RISING PREMIUMS SCENARIO

Option sellers specially Straddle sellers feel that rising premiums give them excellent opportunity to make easy money. So what they are seeing is the theta aspect of options & ignoring the delta/gamma/vega forces.

1/

With rising premiums come high delta moves. There is a reason why premiums are all increasing up in the first place. High uncertainty & fear is what's controlling the markets during such times. So a volatile 200 point move in nifty is always on the cards.

2/

Adjusting during such delta moves involves high slippages. Such costs go in our system & are irrecoverable. So if the ATM straddle is around 400 & after 200 point downmove, the next straddle is at 450 & the loss is not just 50points but compounded much more.

3/

Also there are chances that there is no decay throughout the day. So a straddle seller has to take that heavy risk of carrying it forward & chances of gap openings are high during such times. If converted into Ironfly, then the cost of the wings is too expensive.

4/

Thus cutting down the initial credit significantly.

There will also be very few instances when premiums don't fall till expiry day. So with each delta move the cost of holding a straddle gets accumulated & pressure keeps mounting for the stubborn option sellers.
