This guide walks you through the process of creating an automated trader for a naked put strategy. It covers selecting the trade symbol, setting expiration dates, choosing strike prices, defining entry and exit conditions, and allocating the necessary buying power for your trades. You’ll also learn how to set advanced entry rules and early trade management options to automate your trading efficiently.
Go to your dashboard and click on the black "Create an Autotrader" button.
Click on "Create an Autotrader" and select the option for "Naked Puts."
Choose the symbol (futures, indexes, ETFs, or stocks) you want to trade.
Pick the expiration date for the trade.
Select the strike price using options like delta, amount out of the money, percentage out of the money, or a specific strike price.
Set the quantity of contracts:
Negative quantity (e.g., -1) for selling a put.
Positive quantity (e.g., +1) for buying a put.
Set how often you want to enter the trade (e.g., weekly, on a specific day, or time).
Optionally, integrate TradingView for more advanced entry settings based on indicators.
Configure the take profit percentage, stop loss percentage, and early management settings.
Set a trigger for closing the trade early, such as after 21 days or less.
Set the amount of money this bot can use to place trades.
Ensure the buying power is sufficient to cover the number of trades you want open (e.g., $500 per trade for five trades requires $2,500).
Review the settings, including entry, exit, and buying power allocation, to ensure everything is configured correctly.
After reviewing, click "I Authorize" and save the AutoTrader.
This will create your bot for the naked put strategy.
