Recently sold some individual stock call options and collected a wave of premiums~

Feels pretty good~
In a downtrending market, there's a more certain strategy than buying puts — selling call options~
The logic is simple: when buying puts, you need two things to be right: the direction and the timing. If the stock drops too slowly, the daily time decay eats away at your principal, and even if the direction is correct, you might not make money~
Selling call options only requires one thing: don’t have a big rally. Whether the market drops, moves sideways, or rises slightly, you’re collecting premiums. Time is your friend; each day, the option’s time value automatically flows into your pocket~
In a clearly downtrend, this probability looks very good — the market pays you rent every day, just wait to collect~
Of course, risks must be clearly explained: naked selling of call options theoretically has unlimited losses. If a black swan causes a sharp rally, losses can be significant. So in practice, use spread strategies to control risk or set strict stop-loss levels~
Probabilistic trading makes much more money than luck-based trading~
