Shorting puts can be a very lucrative vehicle for generating 3-7% returns months-thought it might be worthwhile having a thread dedicated to shorting puts.
I've found the big drawback on shorting puts is that a stock moves up, the premiums decrease, and either you have to raise the exercise price on the contracts you're writing
or find new stocks which hopefully offer minimal downside exposure- so I think if anybody wants to mention any positions they have has luck with please also mention the specific exercise prices you have been dealing with.
I've had very good luck lately with the ttwo 7 1/2 puts as well as cpwr 25s and aklm 5s(not huge premiums-but a great feeling of minimal risk.
Thinks about the amd 17 1/2s and the csgs 20s-also like the pmry 12 1/2s.
Anyway like to here what other people are thinking and doing. |
