After successfully applying an options strategy I learned online while working my cubicle job, I came up with the idea of Cubicle Investing. Due to my excitement about my new-found skill set, I decided to invest in a two-week professional options trader class to expand my knowledge base. During this class, I learned additional strategies that have enabled me to make money relatively easily while reducing risk. My goal now is to give back and help others recognize the benefits of multiple streams of income via selling stock options.

What is a Stock Option?
There are two kinds of options: a Call and a Put…
Call
A Call option is similar to a coupon in that it gives the owner the right to buy an item, in this case stock, at a discounted price within a certain period of time.
Put
A Put option is similar to insurance. That is, the owner has the right to make a claim (sell stock) in the event something goes wrong within a certain period of time. In the case of stock, this protects you from losing a significant amount of money. In the stock world, this is called hedging or reducing your risk..

1. How much money should I start with when opening a brokerage account?
A: Some brokers do require a minimum deposit. I recommend you use a broker that does not require a minimum deposit. You can start with as little as $3,000. Now of course, you will not be able to trade as much. The more money you have in your account, the more you can trade and the more premium you can collect?
2. What are the tax implications from the money you make?
A: The premiums you make are taxed as regular income. Nonetheless, please check with your accountant or other tax professional to confirm this. We are not tax professionals.
3. Are Options difficult to learn?
A: Difficult is relative. However, I can promise you that once you complete the Cubicle Investing Options course you will have all the information you need to start trading.
4. Do you need a special account to trade Options?
A: Not really. You do need to get permission from the broker to sell spreads. This is usually considered a level 3 account. This can easily be obtained by answering the questions appropriately when you open your account.
5. Can I trade Options in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA)?
A: Maybe. That really depends on your brokerage firm’s policies and procedures regarding trading in retirement accounts.
6. Are Options risky?
A: They can be. Options were actually developed in the 1970s to reduce risk. Options allow you to define your risk upfront so you go into a trade knowing how much you could potentially lose.
7. Does trading Options require knowledge of complex math?
A: No, just basic arithmetic: Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
8. Why Options and not stocks?
A: You can make money trading both. However, Cubicle Investing likes the flexibility and creativity that comes with trading Options.
9. What are the fee or commission requirements for trading Options?
A: It varies between brokers. Do a search on “Best Options Trading Brokers and Platforms” and see what you come up with.
10. How much money can you make trading Options?
A: That depends on how much money you have in your account and your level of knowledge trading Options.

"Since I share my wins, figured I'll share my losses. Lost $1600 on 2 PLTR calls that I bought in Feb. The price dropped, thought it would bounce, instead it's traded sideways ever since.
With that said I'm up $3800 this month and made just shy of $10K since June 1st - Thank-you brother"
