We use these rules to grade our long-term performance:

• Each and every option in our report is included in determining the performance of the report

• The option is theoretically SOLD at the beginning of the next trading day

• Each option was monitored to determine whether it was always worthless

• Every option was monitored to determine if it expired worthless

Here is how savvy traders could have achieved even better results than those of our analysis:

• Where we used all the options listed in the report to calculate the results, your research may allow you to avoid options that might be questionable. For example- selling a put in an energy related stock while the price of energy is going down. If you have determined that energy prices have stabilized then the option may be worth your while, otherwise you may avoid it.

• While the analysis did not use any fundamentals, news releases, analysts' comments or any additional data, you should be using these sources and more to help you determine the best options to sell.

• Even though the analysis made no additional trades when the underlying stock prices moved below the strike price, you may use strategies to reduce your risks. Examples of this include:

1. Buying the option back and if it price you pay is less than what you sold it for, then you have made money.

2. Buying the option back and selling a new option further out for more than you paid to buy the original option.
