#MyOptionInvestmentJourney
Hi everyone!
I am back again this week (Sep 15) with an update on my option investing journey.
I am exploring a practical way for everyday people (like me!) to make the most of their spare savings — and hopefully, this inspires or helps someone out there too.
🔁 Recap:
[My Profile]
I started with SGD 1,400 / USD 1,050 in spare savings — just sitting in the bank earning minimal interest. Instead of letting it idle, I am testing if I can generate better returns through options investing.
I officially began this journey on August 12, 2025, and chose to invest in an ETF related to Tesla (TSLL) — primarily because of its exposure to Tesla and its dividend yield.
💼 What I've Done:
A. I am selling weekly Protective Put options expiring on Sep 19.
That means I am setting aside $1,050 in case I need to purchase 100 shares of TSLL at $10.50 or below (1 option contract = 100 shares).
However, for this week, as TSLL price had raised above 18USD, I am not able to get any Buyer for Protect PUT at 10USD.
This, I am selling a Protect PUT at 13USD instead, there will be a risk to purchase this using Margin.
B. I check in once a week — super manageable, about 10 minutes weekly.
C. I plan to repeat this weekly until I eventually accumulate 100 shares of TSLL.
💰 Progress So Far:
I have collected $1.25 in premium this week — bringing my total to $13.50, which is approximately 1.29% p.a. to date on my capital.
Thanks for following along — I will post updates weekly.
Lets see how far this small start can go. 🚀
Good luck to all of us! 🍀
