Sole Strategy: I exclusively utilize the Wheel Strategy for all trades.
Trade Transparency: All trades executed within my portfolio are shared with the group. Comments marked "// recommendation" indicate trades I believe are beneficial but haven't personally executed, explaining the rationale behind them.
Premium Income Distribution: My premium income strategy is structured into three distinct segments:
Core Portfolio (80%)
This segment generates the majority of premium income.
Allocate 2-5% of your total portfolio value to each core position.
Diversification is crucial. Avoid overconcentration in just a few positions (e.g., two positions representing 50% each).
High-Premium, Non-Core Companies (15%)
This segment includes companies that offer substantial premiums but aren't suitable for the core portfolio due to various factors.
Examples include TSLA, CMG, MSTR, AMD, CHWY, UBER, and PLTR.
These are strong companies, but their long-term stability is less certain, hence their exclusion from the core.
Crucially, limit investment in these companies to a maximum of 1% of your total portfolio value.
Earnings Plays (5%)
This segment capitalizes on the significantly increased premiums during earnings weeks.
Limit investment in these trades to 0.5% of for each company and altogether don't exceed 5% cost of your total portfolio value.
How to Select Premium?
Cash Secured PUT
If the company is undervalued or fairly valued, I write at market price to squeeze maximum premium.
If it is slightly overvalued or close to fair value, then as a defensive play:
Select a strike price that gives me 2% monthly premium. Example: If you select a $150 strike price, it should give you at least $3 or less premium.
If the company is quite overvalued and shoots up in price in only a few trading sessions, I aim for a 1% monthly premium and select the price accordingly.
Covered Call
I mainly write calls at or above my assigned or purchase price. Never write covered calls below your assigned price.
If the stock is far down from my assigned or purchase price, then I go out two to three months to get a premium amount that equates to 1% of the assigned price.
Example: If my assigned price is $100 and the stock is currently trading at $75, I will go out in the future with a strike price (same as assigned price) that gives me a $1 (1% of $100) premium.
