I like to double my profit by selling a put and call vertical with a delta of 0.15. I don't need max profit, I just need max probability of collecting premium. I tends to use a wide spread to collect max credit. So, for Tesla, I will do like 190/200 or 195/210 for 1-2 weeks option And a 140/120 put option. I will go in with 10lots on call and 10 lots on put For 1 week option. This will give me about $1000 per week income. I don't own the shares and will not want to own any share given my profit is $4000 a month with a capital outlay of only $20000-$30000. As long as Tesla don't breach this 140-190 range, I am safe. And doing it on a week option also make this fairly safe. Even if it does breach on side, the other side will still be in profit to minimise the lose.
