Option selling should be a straightforward endeavor. See an option you want to sell, sell it, wait until expiration, and collect the premium.  You would think that it was as easy as pie, but for some reason it isn’t. There are margin requirements along with inherent flaws in the structure of options that make the prospect of selling them difficult. Couple these problems with the claims that 70 percent to 80 percent of options are worthless when they expire and it’s no wond

Strangles, straddles, and naked options—which type of trade is best? Naked options have a tendency to fall into the same category as simply buying options. If you have a bearish market bias, you sell calls; if you have a bullish market bias, then sell puts. While having a market bias is essential to anyone’s long-term success, trading that market bias can be dangerous, particularly when you have all or nothing riding on one premium. This is what selling naked options means. If

For the record, I do not recommend naked option selling. Of all of the techniques, I consider naked options to be the most risky. This is the only advanced strategy that is not automatically paired up with a spot, futures, or other option position to protect you from the risk.  Naked option selling has two handicaps: misinformation and leverage. The first handicap is misinformation. The fictional number of 90 percent of options expiring worthless was rightly dispelled, but it also red

There are three potential scenarios for the collar position here: We can hold it until expiration, we can walk away from the trade once our target price has been hit, or we can convert it. In the preceding example we converted the collar trade into a bull call spread. In this example we will convert the collar into a ratio spread, also known as a call backspread .  A standard definition of a ratio spread can be found on Investopedia as “an options strategy in which an investor s

Options can be an alternative to using a stop loss. The goal is to show the difference between a pure synthetic option, an at-the-money option and a futures position versus an option hedge, and an out-of-the-money option and a futures position.  Using an option as a hedge is a great way to lock in your money management strategy . But what happens if the market stalls out as it is heading in the direction of your underlying futures contract? You can exit the trade completely or you can

That being the case, approaching gold investing intelligently is paramount to any trader’s success. Failing to recognize the winds of change will most assuredly have you holding the bag when gold is no longer fashionable and missing out when it is.  Before   Can gold do it?

Black gold: The twentieth and twenty-first centuries have seen people die, kill, and lie to possess this commodity. While it has been the back of modernizing society, for the most part it has successfully helped ruin our environment and our intercontinental relationships. In spite of all that, one good thing definitely comes from the discovery of oil—the end of the killing of whales for their fat.  Before   Oil portends the potential for the market to explode upward.
