Bull Put Spread: Find Optimal Setups with AI

The bull put spread is a credit spread that profits when the stock stays above the short put strike. Alpha Copilot helps you find the best risk-reward setups using real-time options data.

What is a bull put spread?

A bull put spread involves selling a put option at a higher strike and buying a put at a lower strike with the same expiration. You collect a net credit upfront and profit if the stock stays above the short put strike at expiration.

Net Credit

Collect premium upfront. Max profit is the credit received.

Defined Risk

Max loss is limited to the spread width minus credit received.

Bullish Bias

Profits from neutral to bullish stock movement.

Key factors in bull put spread selection

Short Strike Selection

The short put strike determines your breakeven and probability of profit. A strike further OTM gives higher PoP but less premium. Deltas of 0.20-0.35 typically offer a good balance.

Spread Width

Wider spreads generate more credit but increase max loss. Typical widths are $2-$5 for stocks and $5-$10 for indices. Choose based on your risk tolerance and account size.

Expiration & IV

30-45 DTE expirations optimize theta decay. Higher implied volatility means richer premiums. Avoid selling spreads before earnings unless that is your specific strategy.
