$508 in profit.
Not from day trading.
Not from chasing momentum.
Not from staring at charts all day.
I simply found a company I wanted to own, waited for a big red day, and sold a cash secured put at a price I was happy to buy shares.
Then I let theta do the work.
Result?
$508 profit in less than 48 hours.
That’s a 2.8% return on capital that was sitting idle in my account.
And if the stock had dropped and I got assigned?
I would’ve happily bought shares of a company I already wanted to own.
Getting paid to place a limit order never gets old.
This is why I love selling options.

BREAKING: President Trump says the deal terms that Iran "leaked" have "nothing to do with the terms that were agreed to" and Iranian leaders are "very dishonorable people to deal with."
"With them, there is no such thing as dealing in good faith," Trump says.
In Iran, they respond to Trump: He has already said 38 times that there is an agreement, his words should be treated like his previous lies, per Israel's Hayom News
The timing is almost poetic, isn't it?
This morning we get a scorching hot CPI print showing a 4.2% annual rate, followed immediately by a massive 1.1% wholesale PPI shocker.
The macro math says the market should be firmly rolling over.
But what happens instead?
Miraculously, right as the data hits, headline "rumors" of an imminent peace/cease deal with Iran get blasted across the media, oil artificially pulls back, and the algorithms trigger a massive 3% short-squeeze pump.
And what a total coincidence that this massive liquidity injection happens exactly 24 hours before the historic, record-breaking $75 Billion SpaceX IPO debuts on the Nasdaq tomorrow morning.
The entire administration, Wall Street desks, and tech insiders are deeply backed into this mega-listing.
They couldn’t afford to let a couple of ugly, blistering inflation prints and a market that has started to correct, spoil the largest tech debut in stock market history.
So, they paint the tape green, squeeze the shorts, and pretend inflation doesn't exist for 6 hours and that this time the deal is different.
Maybe I’m wrong, but the patterns are there, and the people are sheep.
Don't buy the hype. This is a classic, manufactured "liquidity pump" to protect the IPO launch.
The structural inflation problems haven't changed.
Let the tech insiders have their party today, and tomorrow…the macro reality always wins in the end.
Shame on you all, this market manipulation is how corrections will turn to crashes and the people will lose their money.
NOBODY with a large filling will tell you the truth cause either GREED has take them hostage or they are part of the MAGA paid influencer campaign.
Black swan setups.
