Why Married Puts?

The bridge between investing and options trading

For the person who wants to build a portfolio of assets they believe will grow — without lying awake when the market turns. A married put pairs a stock holding with a put that works like an insurance policy: the investor keeps the upside of owning the asset, and the protection sets the most the position can lose.

  • The growth of investing, the sleep-at-night of a hedgeNo cap on the upside if the stock takes off.
  • Risk of around 5–6%, set before entryHow traders structure the hedge so that is what is on the line.
  • Sixteen ways to defend that 5–6%The adjustments traders use to recover the cost of the protection.

For 201 graduates, or anyone with a solid grounding in options. 16 lessons over 8 weeks.
