High Accuracy Option Investing
by Chuck Hughes

We learned that purchasing a call option on a stock moving up in price can produce enormous profits and allows us to harness the tremendous leverage provided from option investing. Stocks that are in a confirmed price uptrend with the 50-Day EMA above the 100-Day EMA are excellent candidates for call option purchases.

Once you select a stock and decide to purchase an option your next challenge is selecting an option time length and strike price. For many stocks there are literally hundreds of options to choose from. For example, there are hundreds of options available for stocks such as Apple. How does an investor effectively choose an option time length and strike price with so many choices?

While stock selection is important for successful option investing, in my experience selecting an option's time length and strike price is just as important as selecting the stock itself.

Option Time Length and Strike Price Selection is Just as Important as Stock Selection

I like to use a 3-step selection process to select options with a high probability of success.

Path to High Accuracy Option Investing

Step 1 – Use 50/100-Day EMA System and Trend Confirmation Indicators to Select a Stock Moving Up In Price

Step 2 – Use Historical Price Data to Select Option Time Length with High Accuracy

Step 3 – Purchase In-The-Money Options with Low Time Value

I like to use historical price data to help select the time length of the option. Historical price data allows me to know the percentage of times a stock increased in price between option expiration dates. This helps me select an option time length (expiration date) that has a high probability of success.

I also select an option with an in-the-money strike price. A call option is in-the-money if the strike price is lower than the current stock price. For example, if Apple stock is trading at 250 then the 200-Strike call option would be in-the-money.

In-the-Money options have less time value and more intrinsic value than out-of-the-money options. As you will discover shortly, purchasing an in-the-money option as a much higher probability of success than purchasing an out-of-the-money option. The goal of the 3-Step Option Selection Process is to enable you to become a successful options investor by helping you understand the time length and strike price selection process that results in high accuracy and more profitable option investing.

Option Cycles

There are three different option expiration cycles. The first expiration cycle is the January, April, July and October expirations. The second cycle is the February, May, August and November expirations and the third cycle is the March, June, September and December expirations. I studied stock price data on a monthly option expiration day in order to determine how far out or which expiration month I should use when I decide to purchase a call option on a stock.

For example, Apple symbol AAPL qualifies as a MVP Option Strategy stock. Apple options use the January, April, July and October expiration cycle. The Apple January, April, July and October options usually become available to trade 6 months prior to expiration. Like most other options, Apple also trades monthly options for all 12 months of the year but the monthly options that are not in the Apple January, April, July and October expiration cycles do not become available to trade until 2 months prior to the monthly expiration.

For example, Apple February options become available for trading two months prior in December and Apple March options become available in January. There are also LEAPS options available for Apple which are long term options. LEAPS options become available for trading one to two years prior to expiration.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below.
