Dividend Put Credit Spreads

A put credit spread is an options strategy that an investor uses when they expect a moderate rise in the price of the underlying asset. The strategy employs two put options to form a range, consisting of a high strike price and a low strike price. The investor receives a net credit from the difference between the premiums of the two options. This strategy implementation ensures that the short strike always has a delta value greater than or equal to -0.30, and must have a minumum Premium to Width Ratio of 0.15.

The criteria for the underlying stocks on this list are that they must have a market cap of $10 billion or greater, have a dividend yield between .05% and 10%, a dividend payout ratio percentage of 90% or less, a liquidity rating of 3 stars or greater, and have made at least 10 dividend payments over the last 5 years.
