Selling options changed my whole investment and trading strategy! Maintaining a small account, I was all this while buying stock and selling stock a few months down the road making single and low double digit gains. Having explored options, I have been making gains on a weekly and monthly basis in high double digit gains and triple digit gains. My favourite option strategy is selling put and bullish vertical put spread. 1) what to buy? Things I look out for when choosing an option trade is to trade on good and stable companies that I don't mind owning if I get assigned the stock which is also good news as that means I am buying a stock I like at lower price 2) When to buy? I buy when a stock has dropped significantly or dropped to a support level
