Selling Option Premium

According to the Chicago Mercantile Exchange 76.5% of all options held to expiration at the CME expired worthless during a three year study.

Although there is no guarantee that any particular trade will result in a profit, and notwithstanding the fact that many options traders lose money, the vast majority of all long options held to expiration expire worthless. The Optioneer course is designed to instruct investors how to sell options and collect premiums.

Learn how to sell options and collect premium in stock indexes. Attend the free seminars listed to take advantage of the Optioneer strategy.

Do Option Sellers Have a Trading Edge?

John Summa, CTA, PhD and Founder of OptionNerd.com explores three key patterns that emerge from a recent Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) study:

  1. on average, three out of every four options held to expiration end up worthless;
  2. the share of puts and calls that expired worthless is influenced by the primary trend of the underlying; and
  3. option sellers still come out ahead even when the seller is going against the trend.

The data presented encourages traders to develop a selling strategy as a primary approach to trading options.

The risk of loss in trading commodity futures and options can be substantial. Before trading, you should carefully consider your financial position to determine if futures trading is appropriate. When trading futures and/or options, it is possible to lose the full balance of your account. It is also possible to lose more than your initial deposit when trading futures and/or granting/writing options. As a result, selling/writing "uncovered" options exposes the seller/writer to the possibility of margin calls and virtually unlimited risk. All funds committed should be purely risk capital. Past performance is no guarantee of future trading results. Member of the National Futures Association
