Methodology

Our IV-aware options income engine uses production-aligned composite scoring to decide when to sell premium:

Cash-Secured Puts (CSP): Identify 5% OTM put opportunities (strike = 95% of stock price) when composite score ≥ 6. Factors: delta proximity, premium yield, probability OTM, IV/HV ratio, and IV Rank.
Covered Calls (CC): Identify 5% OTM call opportunities (strike = 105% of stock price) under the same composite scoring. Assumes the investor already owns 100 shares.
Entry filter: Composite score combines delta, premium yield %, probability of expiring OTM, IV/HV ratio (premiums rich when > 1.2), and IV Rank (percentile vs 52-week range).
Win condition (CSP): Stock stays above strike at expiration — put expires worthless, full premium collected.
Win condition (CC): Stock stays below strike at expiration — call expires worthless, full premium collected.
P&L: Per contract (100 shares). Win = full premium. Loss = premium minus intrinsic value at expiration.

Backtest period: Dec 2024 – Mar 2026 (~14 months, ~290 trading days). 93 symbols tested across multiple sectors. Pricing: Black-Scholes with historical IV from MarketData.app options chains. Per-position DTE: 30 days.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Backtested results may not reflect live market conditions. Does not account for bid-ask spreads, commissions, or assignment costs.
