Still buying puts and calls?
Here’s the smarter setup that can pay out in either direction.
Why option buyers keep getting crushed lately
I've seen this movie before.
The market's making big moves… stocks are ripping up or down… and yet, traders buying calls and puts are still getting steamrolled.
I'm not just talking about bad timing or bad picks.
I'm talking about being right on direction… and STILL losing money.
Why? Because even though the VIX is low, market makers are still jacking up the cost of options.
That means you're paying a premium to play… and that premium is hard to overcome unless the move is fast and violent.
So unless you're catching a monster breakout or breakdown at almost exactly the right time, buying calls or puts right now is a rough game.
That's why I've been leaning into credit spreads and premium-selling plays on stocks that are already trending.
Even if the stock goes nowhere, I still get paid.
And when I'm not sure about direction - but I am sure a big move is coming?
That's when I put on what I call a Two-Way Option play.
Instead of guessing up or down, I just position myself to get paid either way… as long as the stock moves fast enough.
It's simple, and it works.
I’m breaking down a real-world example of this exact trade…
Including the full setup, what I paid, and how it delivered a 133% gain in 39 days.
