1% Weekly Returns from Options Week 28
Now I'm more than 6 months into my 1 year experiment to get 1% a week from selling puts. So far things have been going well. This week only my RKLB puts were ITM but otherwise everything went to 0. Last week's post: [https://www.reddit.com/r/thetagang/comments/1w771xk/1\_weekly\_returns\_from\_options\_week\_27/](https://www.reddit.com/r/thetagang/comments/1w771xk/1_weekly_returns_from_options_week_27/)
If you want to follow me as I trade, I post to r/TheRaceTo10Million before placing trades and comment with trades as I make them. I post here after I make the trades with a full summary
**Strategy**
\- Use an AI screener to give me a list of top 20 low delta options for next week
\- I either
\- a. Roll my current options - I do this if I can still get 1% for rolling or if the option is ATM/ITM and I have to roll. I always roll for credit.
\- b. Close a current option and pick something else from the list that I like
\- I try to do this every Friday. However, if I'm busy on Fridays, I'll sometimes do this on Thursdays.
\- If I get assigned, I will sell calls at assignment price
A lot of people have asked me about why I don't add a criteria to avoid earnings weeks. Like I sold an HPE put across a couple of weeks ago. That's because on earnings weeks the same delta strikes are much further OTM.
A lot of people also ask why I do weeklies. I'll post an analysis of that in the next week comparing weeklies vs. monthlies.
