Option Selling Specialists

Option Selling Program

This unique trading approach attempts to benefit by writing (selling) out-of-the-money options and collecting time premium in a methodical, disciplined manner.

 

 

The Option Selling Program incorporate a proprietary risk management strategy consisting of objective, clear parameters to capture the profit afforded through time decay. Studies have shown that approximately 76% of options expire worthless upon expiration. The Options Trading Program is designed to take advantage of these favorable mathematical and statistical probabilities.

This method of collecting options time premium can be applied with equal objectivity to both puts and calls enabling participants to choose a directional bias; or both for a more neutral or undecided view. Suggested starting capital is 20K-100K with a target return for the program of 6-10% per month. Smaller accounts may be considered.
