While investing always involves risk and nothing is certain, these should be good bets for H2 2022:

Selling Options allows you to make money in all market directions: up, down, sideways.

Here are 3 trades, one for each direction, and they deposit the premium into your account immediately.

3 trades for 3 market directions:
DOWN: Call Credit Spread

Easily a personal favorite, sell a call option a week or two out, and then buy a call option for the same date but with a higher strike for your hedge.
How you profit:

If the stock remains below the option you sold on the expiry date you get to keep the entire premium you got when you entered the trade.

People say selling covered calls is a great way to make money

But many investors don't have the 100 shares to start with.

Well here you go...

3 ways you can simulate a covered call while NOT OWNING 100 shares:
Traders will say they made $1000 selling a covered call on $NVDA, but not everyone here is sitting around with $87,877 to invest in $NVDA.

Here are 3 different ways you can sell a call option on any stock WITHOUT owning the shares AND maintain a hedge.
1) My personal favorite: CALL CREDIT SPREAD

There is an inherit bearishness with a covered call.

Covered call writers, you can argue you're neutral to bullish all you want, but deep down inside you know your trade has a slight bearish slant.

Ever heard of a Double Diagonal?

It is a trade that allows for 3 avenues for profit, and it maintains the hedge the entire time.

It is as close to the perfect trade as possible.

Let me show you:
I'm not kidding around, this is an insanely powerful trade.

The only drawback is that it can be margin heavy, but I get 3 different exit strategies for profit

Let's review how we build them, then how we get out for profit.
Initially in this approach, you engage in BOTH a diagonal call spread, and a diagonal put spread.

Both of these strategies INDIVIDUALLY aim to benefit from the fact that the time value of near options decrease faster than the longer dated option.

Cash Secured Put Assignments:

I got assigned $AAPL shares at 190 and $TSLA shares at 255

This is what I will do next to make these trades profitable.
I was assigned these shares after my cash secured puts went into the money mid week.
So now I do the following:

1) Calculate my adjusted cost basis per share, taking into account the put credit I received last month.

Assignment price - put credit = cost basis

In February I made $11,637 USD in net profits trading covered calls.

I have a system, here are my 7 rules:
It’s no joke, using my system I made:

$11,967 in February
$9,837 in January
$15,613 in December

This is net profit after accounting for some losing trades.

Here are the 7 rules:
RULE 1 - Sweet Spot:

I sell Delta 0.20 - 0.30

This forces me to sell out of the money

This is a great balance between risk and reward
