Looking for another way to make money out of this run up. anyone tried to sell puts? How does this work?
Edit: nah.. looked it up on optionsxpress, and realize i need to have money to buy the stock available while the put is active. So one 300put 2019, will make me 8000, but tie up 30000 the whole time it is active.
I think my money is put (no pun intended) better to use buying itm calls than selling puts.
And if my only wish was to buy stocks at a lower strike, selling puts at my wanted buy price would be the way to go. Get the put money, and in case of a dip, also get to buy the stock at wanted price level. Better than running after the sp waiting for a buying opportunity which may never come.
