"Top 6 Option Strategies for Steady Income Growth"

The article outlines six popular options trading strategies—Covered Calls, Cash-Secured Puts, Iron Condors, Credit Spreads, Diagonal Spreads, and Selling Weekly Options—highlighting their income-generating potential, risk management, and ideal market conditions. Each strategy caters to different investor objectives, from stable markets to stocks with growth potential.


Strategy Description
Covered Calls
Covered calls involve selling call options on stocks you already own. You collect the premium from the buyer of the call option. If the stock price doesn't exceed the strike price of the option, you keep the premium and the stock. This strategy works best for stocks that you believe will remain stable or grow slowly.
Cash-Secured Puts
Cash-secured puts involve selling put options while holding enough cash to purchase the stock if it drops to the strike price. This allows you to collect the option premium and potentially buy the stock at a discounted price. It’s a good strategy for stocks you are interested in owning.
Iron Condors
An iron condor is a strategy that involves selling both a call and a put option, while simultaneously buying further out-of-the-money call and put options for the same expiration date. This strategy works well in low-volatility markets, as it enables you to earn income from the premiums while limiting risk.
Credit Spreads
Credit spreads involve selling one option and buying another option at a different strike price within the same expiration date. The goal is to collect the net premium between the two options. This strategy can be applied to calls or puts and is useful for generating income with limited risk.
Diagonal Spreads
Diagonal spreads involve selling a short-term option and simultaneously buying a longer-term option with a different strike price. This strategy allows you to collect premiums while benefiting from potential stock price movements over time.
Selling Weekly Options
Selling weekly options can provide frequent income opportunities. These options typically have less time value, but the premiums can add up over multiple weeks. This strategy requires careful monitoring and works best for stocks or ETFs with stable prices.
