      <image:caption>Through our put option selling calculator above, we see that selling the KO put option using the 50% naked put technique would result in an annualized return of around 14%. Notice the cash requirement of $1,900 in this example. Nothing changes from the cash secured put option except the Cash Required and as a result the Return/Annualized Return. This is a good medium between selling a 25% naked put and a completely cash secured put. Returns are not maximized but the risk is substantially lower through the amount of cash kept as collateral. This is the only put selling technique we recommend to our subscribers and we have had great success with it. You would be obligated to purchase the shares of KO from the option buyer at $38 between now and September 18th, 2020. If shares of KO remained above $38, the option would expire worthless and you could use your capital to sell your next put. Let’s analyze the possible outcomes at expiration when selling puts Just like any trading strategy, outcomes and exit strategies always need to be fully understood. Outcome 1. The share price stays above the strike price you agreed to purchase the shares at. The option would then expire worthless and you would be able to use your income required and your cash you kept as collateral on your next trade. In the Coca-Cola example, if the price of KO shares on September 18th, 2020 were above $38 the option would expire worthless and you would make the rates of returns from the examples above depending on your choice of technique. Outcome 2. The share price dips below the strike price you agreed to purchase the shares at. The buyer of the option would then have the right to sell you shares of KO at $38 a share. You still get to keep the premium you received from selling the option and therefore your actual cost per share would be $37.13 a share. You get to buy a great stock that you liked at over $45 for over a 17% discount. Once you sell a put option, you can always exit the trade early (before the option expires). Using the Coca-Cola example, you would have to wait 117 days until the option expired. Just like stocks, options are constantly bought and sold. As you can see based off of our Closed Trades we frequently close positions early by buying back the option that we sold for a lower price. So why would we do this? The main reason is to maximize our annual returns. Let’s say that the KO option we sold at $87.50 is trading at $35 after a month. Instead of waiting another 87 days for the option to expire, we can buy back the option for just $35. Our returns wouldn’t be as high as they would if we waited for the option to expire after the full 117 days, but our annual returns would be greatly increased. We would be making $52.5 after a month ($87.50-$35). Therefore our annual returns would more than double since the duration of the trade was significantly shortened. Understanding option pricing Returns through selling put options can vary greatly depending on the underlying stock and its implied volatility. Coca-Cola is considered a blue chip dividend aristocrat stock and therefore volatility relative to most other stocks is low. For stocks that historically have low volatility, returns through selling puts are lower than average. Still, from the examples above you can see for yourself that returns from selling puts on Coca-Cola can greatly outperform the current dividend payment of only 3.64.%. Returns for selling puts on stocks with high volatility can be very enticing but investors should only sell puts on high quality stocks that they wouldn’t mind owning. There are many opportunities to sell put options on high quality stocks without having to resort to risky low quality stocks that are not attractive investments.</image:caption>
