⚠️ Illustrative Scenario Only: This simulator generates hypothetical mathematical scenarios based on standardized delta proxies, not guaranteed outcomes, price predictions, or individualized investment advice. Annualized figures assume repeated deployment under identical market conditions. Calculations exclude commissions, regulatory fees ($0.03-$0.04/contract), taxes, slippage, assignment, early exercise, and underlying equity capital losses. Always assess liquidity and maximum downside risk before trading options.

1. The Cash-Secured Put (CSP)

Sell out-of-the-money puts on companies you want to own long term. Collect immediate cash upfront. If the stock stays above your strike price, the option expires worthless and you keep 100% of the profit.

2. LEAPS Synthetic Leverage

Deep In-The-Money (0.75+ Delta) call options with 1 to 2+ years of expiration simulate owning 100 shares of stock at a fraction (~30-35%) of the upfront capital cost, allowing capital efficiency and higher Return on Capital (ROC).

3. The Covered Call (The Wheel)

If your CSP gets assigned, you own shares at a discounted cost basis. You immediately turn around and sell out-of-the-money covered calls against those shares to generate a second continuous stream of cash flow.
