MARM
FT Vest U.S. Equity Max Buffer ETF - March
stockBATSETF

Did you mean ARM? "MARM" doesn't have options. How far out on that SOXX CSP? At 22DTE it's at 31-delta, and anything shorter is less than that. But if you're going longer then you're above 30-delta. Not a big deal, just saying. Plotting SHOP and AFRM together on the 3-month I see AFRM going up and SHOP mostly flat. So personally I wouldn't play SHOP. But then, I buy Calls, so I need the ticker to go up. With CSPs you just need it to not go down too much. So if you think it's found a floor here, then it's a good play. And YES: ***ETFs shield us from single-issue risk.*** Almost all my plays now are ETFs for that reason. What I do is use Barchart's ETF Screener to find ones that are going up over the past 3 months. Along the top, find 'ETFs' and click on it. In the side bar, a little ways down, find "ETF Screener". It's the last one under the header Market Pulse, and before the header Performance Leaders. Uncheck all the leveraged ETFs, but keep the 1x inverse ones. Add the filter "Has Options" Add a Volume filter of 500,000 or so. Click the blue See Results button. Across the top of the list, change Filter View to Performance. Click on the 3M %Chg header to sort by 3-month performance. That list is your hunting ground. Long Calls or CSPs on most of those should work out okay. But find the "flipcharts" button at the top-right of the chart. Click it. Upper-right, change Template to "Line chart, percent." Over at the top-left, leave the view at 6M. Now flip through the charts and find ones that are smooth. Deploy your bullish tactics on them.
