About Credit Put Spread Garage

A project dreamed up in the garage

Why Garage

Growing up, the garage was the place where ideas got developed and brought to life. Whether it was building a skateboard ramp, messing with a chemistry set, fixing our bikes, building a computer, or taking things apart to see how they work. As we got older, tinkering with cars or motorcycles. The garage was the safe place. We could spread out, figure things out, let ideas flourish. Mom wouldn't get pissed about the mess. We could leave things laid out for days, weeks, until the idea was done. No explaining. No asking for permission.

Why Credit Put Spreads

I did really well in a bull market. Consistent profits. Literally turned $1k into $40k within a year, just on SPY. Then I didn't know how to adjust when things went sideways. Lost a lot of money, fast.

I've learned a lot since then. Recency bias. Charting. I understand credit put spreads well enough now to find opportunities outside of SPY. I was only using SPY before as a controlled variable—turns out that was limiting.

The Automation

There are a few conditions that can present opportunities. They come up often enough when you expand to all S&P 500 and QQQ tickers. I've removed a few that are in highly volatile industries—crypto stocks and the like.

I added automation to find these positions and rate them daily. Logic for strikes and expiration too. I always stick to one position, so scaling is easy.

The knowledge base has a lot of what I've learned over the past few years.

AI Transparency

Not gonna hide it—I'm proud of the automation. But some people look down on "AI slop." A lot of this site was generated with AI. The site and positions are maintained by AI.

Trade at your own risk. This is just a project. Something dreamed up in the garage.

Happy trading!
