#MyOptionInvestmentJourney

Hi everyone! I am back again this week (Jan 12) with an update on my option investing journey.

For new reader, may refer to my recap section on the context.

Now for my update...

💰 Progress So Far:

My current capital is 3,050 USD as of 01-Dec-2025.

This week, I have sold 1 PUT Option that expired on (20260206).

$TSLL 20260206 14.0 PUT$  

I have collected another 21.25 USD in premium — bringing my total Net Revenue since 12th August 2025 to 157.50 USD, which is approximately 5.16% p.a. to date on my capital (currently 3,050 USD).

This means I have 2 PUT Options that expired:

a. 20260130, and

b. 20260206.

Thanks for following along — I will post updates bi-weekly.

Lets see how far this small start can go. 🚀

Good luck to all of us! 🍀

🔁 Recap:

I am exploring a practical way for everyday people (like me!) to make the most of their spare savings — and hopefully, this inspires or helps someone out there too.

[My Profile]

I started with 1,400 SGD / 1,050 USD in spare savings — just sitting in the bank earning minimal interest. Instead of letting it idle, I am testing if I can generate better returns through options investing.

I officially began this journey on August 12, 2025, and chose to invest in an ETF related to Tesla (TSLL) — primarily because of its exposure to Tesla and its dividend yield.

💼 What I've Done:

A. I have set aside about 3050 USD in my Tiger account as of 2025-DEC-01 incase I get assigned to purchase 200 shares of TSLL from the PUT Options.

B. I am selling Put options to purchase TSLL at my comfortable price range with the duration of 4 weeks.

C. For this week, TSLL price is around 18~19 USD, and I am able to get Buyer for PUT option at 14.00 USD.

D. My Risk is that I may need to purchase TSLL at 14.00 USD per lot.

E. I check in once a week — super manageable, about 10 minutes weekly.

F. I plan to repeat this weekly until I eventually accumulate 100 or 200 shares of TSLL. Then I will make a slight change in this strategy.
