Educational tool only — not financial advice. Options involve risk, including possible loss of principal. Premiums shown are per-share; one contract = 100 shares. Annualized return assumes you can repeat similar trades all year, which isn't guaranteed.

How the wheel works (30-second version)

Step 1 — Sell a cash-secured put below the current price. Keep the premium if the stock stays above the strike.
Step 2 — Get assigned? Good. You now own 100 shares at the strike, minus the premium you already collected.
Step 3 — Sell covered calls above your cost basis. Keep the premium; if shares get called away above the strike, you profit on the stock too.
Repeat. Premium income compounds while you wait for the right exit.
