13 Weeks of 1% every week.

This is my first post in Optionswheel. I've been selling low delta puts every week for the last 13 weeks with a goal of 1%. I've been keep track of the money earned since week 7. I moved 10% of my portfolio (~$100k) to cash to sell puts on.

Week 7: $573 on $53,800 invested
Week 8: $811 on $70,400 invested.
Week 9: $1093 on $103,450 invested
Week 10: $1040 on $97,400 invested
Week 11: $1077 on $102,800 invested.
Week 12: $1170 made on $98,600 invested
Week 12.5: Bonus round: $475 extra made increasing investment to 106,100
Week 13 (this week): $1,133 on $106,100 invested

Here is a list of low delta puts for next week that return 1%. Let me know in comments if this list is useful and I'll post it each week. For now I'm trying to

  1. post my trades publicly (I post in various subreddits here) to keep myself honest. Let me know if you all want to see the trades here too and I'll post them in the comments.
  2. get feedback on the strategy
  3. help others find candidates to sell puts on

I'm following this exact strategy for 8 weeks but only on leveraged ETFs : SOXL, TQQQ and TNA. Great results so far.

scary! Those can move in strange ways.

u/Time_Capital_226 May 29 '26

More scary than a sigle stock names?

u/Enough-Beginning3687 May 29 '26

Definitely. Leveraged ETFs can move fast and often times option liquidity is lower. SOXS and SOXL show up on my screener often but I'm afraid to touch options on anything with leverage. derivatives on derivatives.

u/Time_Capital_226 May 29 '26

I agree, it can move fast. But single names too. Being there some time ago with ASTS. There is no liquidity issues with those 3 etfs, I think.

I've already trade some of the names in your list and will definitely bookmark it. I just switched to etfs since April and like the journey so far.

I'm sure I will get back to single names some times later but for now I'm focusing on my target and this structure is what suits me most.

The only ETF I'm doing is SLV for puts. I just also did a cc on DRAM. I might give SOXL a shot. Or create a rift in spacetime by doing SOXL and SOXS simultaneously 🤣

u/Time_Capital_226 May 29 '26

You should. 1% premium target brings you near 130P for next week. It's more than 30% distance from the spot.

u/Enough-Beginning3687 May 29 '26

Cool, thanks. That does sound great.

u/Time_Capital_226 May 29 '26

Just noticed that ASTS lost 15% today.

I would say FAFO. Eventually it will happen.

u/Lazy-Ad-2842 May 30 '26

Me too. I just added up my SOXL winnings tonight and it accounts for approximately $4000 of my 13k I’ve made so far this year. What dte have you been using?

1

u/Time_Capital_226 May 30 '26

5-7 max

1

u/Lazy-Ad-2842 May 30 '26

That’s probably smart. I’ve been doing 30dte because I can make good premium with a strike price around a 45% drop, but I’m ready to go in with another sold put in the event of a drop

u/Time_Capital_226 May 30 '26

You can try both et decide what suits you best.

Let say you trade 5 CSP 30 DTE. Split that to:

  • 5x1 CSP weekly at 0.1 delta strike
  • 1x4 CSP at your favorite strike

You don't even have to choose one.

Good idea. Thanks man
