My strategy is only to write puts where no matter what happens I can get 50% cash on cash annualized yield. I cannot get fully invested at the moment. My goal is achieved by only writing puts on safe haven stocks:
1) Selling for less than estimated liquidation value.
The PE is less than PEG (percentage earning growth over the last five years)
2) Then I do another cull:
The two month put premium exceeds 10% and the call premium is slightly higher based on getting the issue exercised to me at 90% of market.
Then I make sure there are more puts than calls outstanding at the strike price and expiration date I am looking at. I do this because the underlying has to be purchased for the put to be exercised and that drives the stock price up and the call premium. This last part is where I am having a problem. More calls are being bought than puts. Therefore there is no predictable floor.
