Stock Trading Strategies

Options can be very helpful in developing stock trading strategies. If you are interested in options, then you must be interested in stocks, ETF's and other equities that represent the underlying instruments for safe option selling. There are a number of ways in which we can use options to help in stock timing, stock selection, stock portfolio protection and in acquiring stock. These include:

Put selling to acquire stock cheaply

Blue Chip Stocks

Using Puts to Insure Your Stocks Against Loss

Deep-in-the-money LEAPS as a stock substitute

Put/call ratio to determine market sentiment

Using the CBOE VIX as an indicator of market stress level

Own stock for free by selling calls
