Hi mate, thanks for all your sharing on X, one thing I’m trying to get my head round on these is, If they are based on options income, traders have to lay put and call bets on the underlying asset … so in a flat market those types of trades dry up, and I’m assuming so would the premiums that pay the returns? Also are they based on just Call premiums or also puts … so perform in a bear market? Appreciate any help on this 💪

Covered calls vs cash-secured puts Which is better? It depends on the market 👇 Up Market 📈 Selling calls → Caps your upside. You might have to sell shares at the strike price. Selling puts → No cap on upside. No need to sell shares if prices rise. Flat Market ➡️ Both work. You collect premium while the stock goes nowhere. Down Market 📉 Selling calls → Income helps cushion losses. Keep your shares if price stays below strike. Selling puts → Income helps cushion losses. But you might have to buy shares at the strike. The takeaway? Neither strategy is "better" - they perform differently depending on market conditions. That's why the @IncomeShares 75% put / 25% equity approach is interesting. It's positioned for income in any environment.
