Frequently Asked Questions

What should I screen for when selling options?

For premium selling, screen for IV Rank above 30-50%, sufficient options liquidity (volume > 100 contracts daily), manageable underlying price for your account size, and stocks you'd be comfortable owning if assigned.

How do I find unusual options activity?

Filter for options volume that exceeds average daily volume by 2x or more, and open interest increases of 1.5x or greater. This often indicates institutional positioning or informed trading ahead of events.
