Educational notes
The yields shown are annualized cycle math — they assume successful repetition without assignment at adverse prices, IV crush, or gap moves. Real-world net yields typically run 40-70% of the displayed number after slippage and adverse fills.
Risk commentary
Every options-income position carries assignment risk on adverse moves, gamma risk near expiration, and IV expansion risk if news breaks. Position-size to a fraction of your account, diversify across sectors, and have an exit plan before you enter.
