Strategies You Can Backtest
Seven proven income strategies, backtested with historical data so you can trade with confidence.
Wheel Strategy
The complete income cycle: sell cash-secured puts until assigned, then sell covered calls until called away. Rinse and repeat.
Covered Calls
Generate consistent income on long stock positions by selling calls against your shares. Optional protective puts for downside insurance.
Cash-Secured Puts
Sell puts secured by cash to collect premium while waiting to buy the stock at a lower price. Ideal for building positions at a discount.
Poor Man's Covered Call
A capital-efficient alternative to covered calls. Buy deep ITM LEAPS and sell shorter-term calls against them for recurring premium income.
Credit Spreads
Define your risk with vertical spreads. Sell a put or call spread to collect premium with a capped max loss, ideal for smaller accounts or directional plays.
Short Iron Condors
Collect premium from both sides of the market. Sell a put spread and a call spread simultaneously to profit from range-bound price action.
Dividend Reinvestment
Find the sweet spot between income and compounding. Compare 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% reinvestment levels side-by-side for any dividend-paying stock or income ETF.
