Then there are some of these stocks where the premiums are so high, it's like finding 1000 bucks just laying in the street. I sold NKLA 30 puts for ten days out while the stock was around 65. I got 120 per contract. I sold FSLY puts thursday 10 percent out of the money and got 85 per contract. For a day and a half of tying up margin balance.

Naked puts are risky if the sell off is huge. Do you carry enough to cover if stocks are placed on you?
