I tracked 5 options strategies over 10 years.

Here is how they ranked.
D tier — Covered calls.
Bullish with one hand. Bearish with the other.
You cap your upside on the exact companies you love most.
NVIDIA went up 10x. Covered call sellers missed most of it.
C tier — Cash secured puts.
Right idea. Wrong execution.
All that cash sitting there doing nothing while you are bullish.
B tier — Buying puts.
Hard to be consistently right on timing AND direction.
Theta eats you alive while you wait to be right.
A tier — Buying long duration calls.
Works well when cheap. Still requires timing.
S tier — Portfolio secured puts + long duration calls + base portfolio.
What scaled me to 7 figures.
25.89% CAGR over 5 years.
Beat S&P (15%)
Nasdaq (18%).
One system. Boring. Repeatable. Wins.
