Options Trading Strategy: $3,000 Goal with SLV ETF & Cash Secured Puts
Apr 14, 2025
In this video we are talking about the wheel strategy update for March 2025. With my $3,000 wheel strategy portfolio, I am selling options. specifically, I am selling covered calls and cash-secured puts with the iShares silver trust with ticker symbol SLV. This ETF is a great fit for a $3,000 small portfolio selling options because I can control 100 shares for only $3,000 and I can also sell options more than once a week.

The Wheel Strategy is a popular options trading approach designed to generate consistent income while managing risk. It’s often described as a methodical, semi-passive way to profit from the stock market, appealing to both beginners and seasoned investors. Here’s a breakdown of how it works and what it’s all about:
At its core, the Wheel Strategy involves a cycle of selling cash-secured puts and covered calls on stocks you’re comfortable owning long-term. It’s not about chasing quick gains but rather collecting premiums over time, often outperforming a simple buy-and-hold approach in flat or mildly trending markets.
How It Works
Sell a Cash-Secured Put: You start by selling a put option on a stock you like, ideally at a strike price below the current market price (out-of-the-money). This requires you to have enough cash in your account to buy 100 shares per contract if the option is exercised. In return, you collect a premium upfront.
Outcome 1: If the stock price stays above the strike price at expiration, the put expires worthless, you keep the premium, and you can sell another put to repeat the process.
Outcome 2: If the stock dips below the strike price and the put is assigned, you buy the shares at that price, reduced by the premium you collected.
