Options strategies for retirement accounts

• The differences between IRAs and taxable brokerage accounts
• How compounding can help increase the value of your retirement account
• How to generate income in your IRA with covered calls and cash-secured puts
• How to protect your stock and ETF positions with puts and option collars
• The trade-offs associated with these options strategies

If you’re saving for retirement in an IRA, you’re focused on your future. Many investors want to achieve long-term growth until they’re ready to retire by investing in stocks, mutual funds, and ETFs that they feel confident in. While it isn’t possible to completely avoid risk while investing, you generally want to manage risk in your retirement account.

For some investors, certain options strategies can potentially help achieve long-term growth in their IRA. But if you’re interested in more speculative trading strategies, you might want to also have a separate, taxable brokerage account where you can focus on potential shorter-term profits — without jeopardizing your retirement savings. Think of your IRA as the investments you’re making for your future self.

IRAs vs. taxable brokerage accounts

The US government incentives saving for retirement through special tax treatment for retirement accounts. Taxes can significantly cut into your returns, so saving for retirement in an IRA can help you achieve your retirement goals faster than saving in a taxable account.

This table does not include complete details regarding IRAs. For more details, visit the IRS website or consult a tax advisor for your specific situation.

Fortunately, IRAs and brokerage accounts aren’t mutually exclusive: many investors and traders have both. The important thing to understand is that the way you invest in your IRA may be different from how you trade in your taxable brokerage account.

How compounding can work in an IRA

Common themes for a healthy retirement account are consistent contributions, time, and the potential for compound growth. Even if you contribute consistently over a long period of time, you may not have enough to retire. For example, if you contribute $6,500 per year to an IRA for 30 years, you’ll have saved $195,000. While this may seem like an impressive amount of money, if you generally spend $50,000 a year, this wouldn’t even last for four years during your retirement.

Just as compound growth can work in your favor, compound losses can quickly work against you. The greater the loss, the harder it is to recover: for example, a 10% drop in your account requires an 11% gain to recover, whereas a 25% loss requires a 33% gain to recover. If a few risky trades wipe out your contributions, it can be hard to get back on track, especially in an IRA, where your yearly contributions are capped at $6,500 per year (if you’re under 50 years old). Because speculating on highly volatile stocks and ETFs with low probability options strategies can quickly erode potential compound growth, this type of trading is often avoided in an IRA.

Options strategies in an IRA

When used properly, options can be a valuable trading tool to help balance risk and reward, hedge against downturns, or generate income. If you’re interested in using options in your IRA, it’s crucial to keep the mindset of long-term compound growth at the forefront of your decision-making. Options strategies that can help support long-term growth in IRAs attempt to either generate income or help protect existing positions in your portfolio. These include:

• Selling covered calls and cash-secured puts
• Buying protective puts
• Tactically using zero-cost collars

Covered calls

Covered calls are one of the most common options strategies used by investors in IRAs because of the dual benefits they can offer: they allow you to generate income on shares you already own and provide a bit of downside protection while lowering the effective cost of your shares. In exchange for collecting a premium, you’re obligated to sell 100 shares of the underlying at the strike price up until expiration if the buyer of the option exercises their right to buy.

Compared to just owning stock, the downside of covered calls is that your upside gains are capped. However, if the price of the underlying drops, the premium you collect can offset some of those losses. While covered calls aren’t considered an active trading strategy, they do require management — they’re not a “set and forget” strategy. As the option approaches expiration, it’s important to have a plan to either buy to close or roll the short call to avoid assignment (unless your goal is to exit your stock position). Sellers of covered calls should also be cautious of early assignment and any upcoming dividend risks.

To generate regular income in an IRA, investors may consider consistently selling out-of-the-money calls (a strike price that is above the current stock price) on a weekly or monthly basis, often looking to collect a premium of about 2% of the value of their position. Many investors may look to sell calls with a .20 to .30 delta. Delta is often considered a rough estimate of the probability that an option will expire in the money, so a call with a .20 to .30 delta has roughly a 70-80% chance of expiring worthless. By regularly selling out of the money calls over time, traders can aim to slowly generate additional income on their existing positions in their IRA. Of course, these are just rough probabilities and actual results will vary. And there’s always the possibility that your shares are called away at the strike price. Lastly, while it may be tempting to sell a deep in-the-money call, it’s best to avoid doing that. These options have very little time value left and you’d be at risk of an early assignment.

Cash-secured puts

When selecting a strike, you should consider your end goal: are you trying to acquire the stock or just looking to collect premium? If you’re looking to generate income, consider strikes with a -.20 to -.30 delta. If you want to own the stock closer to the current market price, deltas closer to -.50 may provide higher premiums and increase your likelihood of assignment. Keep in mind, you have to be willing to buy 100 shares at the strike price, so don’t select a strike that’s higher than you want to pay for shares of the underlying stock. Also, it’s best to avoid selling in-the-money puts as those options will likely not provide any distinct advantages even though their premiums are higher.

The options wheel

While many traders buy and sell stocks and ETFs with market and limit orders, it’s also possible to potentially buy and sell shares using short options. Income-oriented traders may regularly combine selling cash-secured puts and covered calls using what’s called “the wheel.” Essentially, the wheel involves selling cash-secured puts until you’re assigned the shares. Once assigned, you’ll sell covered calls until your shares are called away. Then, you can start the process all over again.

Candidates for the wheel strategy are similar to the types of stocks many investors have in an IRA: large-caps with strong fundamentals or index ETFs. Once again, these strategies are not “set and forget.” They do require active management as options expire and/or are assigned and the resulting stock positions are acquired or sold.

Protective puts

Remember, buying a put gives you the option to sell your shares, but you don’t have to. Depending on your outlook for the underlying stock, you may choose to exercise, but if you still want to hold the position, your long put will likely increase in value if the stock’s price goes down. You could attempt to sell your put before it expires to offset some of your stock position’s unrealized losses and continue to hold your shares.

While this may sound like a foolproof solution to managing risk, buying puts isn’t necessarily cheap: if fear of a market selloff grows, implied volatility usually rises, and so will the prices of put options. It’s important to maintain a mindset toward long-term growth and protect your positions when necessary, but be cognizant not to overpay for protection.

If you’re concerned with paying too much for put options, you might consider a collar: a combination of a covered call and a protective put. The benefit of a collar is that you can use the premium collected from the covered call to help fund the purchase of the long put. Granted, you’ll also be capping your upside potential. Depending on the strikes you choose, and their individual prices, you may be able to establish the position for no money down, known as a “zero-cost collar.”

Collars are generally appropriate as a short-term hedge. Since the focus of the position is the shares you own, you typically don’t want to cap your upside profit potential for too long. If you have a strong suspicion that your position could drop in the near-term, maybe due to a bad earnings call, a collar can be an effective hedging solution. However, if the underlying stock price rises, you risk getting your shares called away. You can help avoid this by closing the collar after the event occurs, but before expiration, essentially returning the position back to a long stock position.

Maintain a long-term mindset

Bottom line, if you decide to use options in your retirement account, it’s important to practice great risk management. One of the key ingredients to compounding is time. Even if you consider yourself a short-term trader in your regular brokerage account, in an IRA, everyone is a long-term investor. Losses from short-term, speculative trades can quickly eat into your principal, which should be the foundation of your compound growth. So do yourself a favor and invest responsibly in your IRA. Your future self will thank you.

New York Giants 2024 Draft Preview: Best Receiver Fits

The Giants are all but certain to draft a wide receiver in this year's class. Might they even go for two, given the depth of the class and the need for special teams?

• Author: Patricia Traina
• Publish date: Apr 22, 2024

In this story:

The New York Giants are going to draft a wide receiver this weekend. Whether that happens in the first round, where they’ll be in a position to get one of the “big three” (Ohio State’s Marvin Harrison Jr., Washington’s Rome Odunze, and LSU’s Malik Nabers), or if they look to either trade back into the bottom of the first round or delay the decision until Day 2, a receiver from this vastly deep class is a given.

Besides the fact that the Giants ranked last in completions of 10 yards or more and tied for 25th in passes of 20 yards or more, general manager Joe Schoen even admitted that getting a legitimate No. 1 receiver would potentially do wonders for a passing offense that badly regressed last year—and not only because of the play of the quarterback and offensive line.

"It can really help you out, especially the way we're constructed now," Schoen told reporters at his pre-draft press conference last week. 

"If you add another wide receiver, whether it's in the top 10 or later in the draft because of the depth of the class, I do think it gives you options, and it's going to help the offense in general. We have to score more. 

"Adding, if it's a No. 1 receiver, whatever you want to call it, just a better-receiving weapon is going to help everybody." 

That’s about as close of an admission to what they plan to do as we’ll get in advance from Schoen. And it’s no surprise. Although the Giant's receiver corps, as currently constructed with Darius Slayton, Wan’Dale Robinson, and Jalin Hyatt, isn’t the worst group in the league, just think of how much better they could be with a number one drawing double coverage and creating matchups nightmares that the other could potentially take advantage of.

The question then becomes not if but when. Will the Giants prioritize getting a quarterback over a receiver in the first round? Unless a quarterback they love falls to them, we don’t see that happening. We also need more convincing that the Giants might be looking to trade up in this draft class to get a quarterback.

In short, all signs point to a receiver as among the first three picks made by the Giants, a team that hasn’t had a No. 1 or a 1,000-yard receiver since Odell Beckham Jr in 2018. And while there will still be those who question who is going to throw the ball to the receiver, the Giants roster is at a place right now where their best approach toward becoming relevant again is to build up the foundation some more and then drop a quarterback (likely taken either on Day 2 or perhaps even in a trade up back into the first round), into the mix. 

If the Giants draft a No. 1 receiver, where does that leave Darius Slayton?

Darius Slayton has been nothing but a consummate professional. When faced with the choice of taking a pay cut or being cut, he did the latter. And despite reportedly receiving a better offer in free agency from the Atlanta Falcons a year ago, Slayton opted to return to the Giants to continue his role in helping to build the franchise.

But Slayton has his limits. He’s been a no-show at the team’s off-season conditioning program, a program that while voluntary is still widely attended by players who see the value in building team chemistry with the new faces that come into the locker room.

Slayton’s absence is reportedly tied into his wanting a contract extension, his timing raising an eyebrow or two considering the Giants are all but certain to draft a receiver who not only might end up as the team’s yardage leader (an honor Slayton has earned in four of his last four seasons) but who might also become the primary focus in the passing game, thereby potentially reducing Slayton’s weekly workload.

But that hasn’t stopped the former Auburn receiver from wanting longer-term security, for which no one can blame him.

That said, the Giants don’t seem particularly interested in giving him that extension he wants now.

“I understand where he's coming from because I've had communication with his agent,” Schoen said last week. “We just signed the [current] deal a little over 12 months ago. It was a two-year deal.” 

Slayton’s decision to skip the (again) VOLUNTARY program also doesn't affect the Giants' draft plans or feelings about the receiver.

“That doesn't change anything,” Schoen said. “These are voluntary workouts. There's been players since I've been here that haven't been here, and I understand that. 

“I love Darius—I understand where he's coming from, and that's his prerogative to not be here. They are voluntary workouts, so that's understood.” 

As is the likelihood that if the Giants draft a No. 1 receiver, he will become the main guy in the passing attack, further weakening Slayton’s quest for an extension with the only pro team he’s ever played for.

Day 1: Rome Odunze (Washington)

We know that LSU’s Malik Nabers has been strongly linked to the Giants in the first round, and it’s not that we wouldn’t be happy with him. But we’d be happiest with Odunze for several reasons. 

Odunze is prototypically sized at 6-foot-3, 212 pounds, and has good all-around athleticism. He's a high school sprinter who can open his stride and chew up yardage in the open field and has great leaping ability. 

He is a contested catch specialist who uses his size and jumping ability to highpoint the ball over defenders. He also has great ball skills to locate and track the ball in the air, position himself to box out defenders at the catch point, and maximize receiving windows. 

He is a team captain who has improved every year at Washington, and he'll need to continue growing as a receiver in the NFL. He'll need to run crisper, more nuanced routes to reach his true ceiling as a pro. 

Did we also mention that we like the intangibles he offers, including how he handled himself at the combine in wanting to work to improve his numbers and help out while his peers were calling it a day? 

Side note about Nabers. According to Albert Breer of SI.com, Nabers’ medicals revealed a shoulder issue that may require surgery after the 2024 season. Whether that factors into the Giants' thought process—and we would be stunned if it doesn’t—remains to be seen, but this is another reason we would be surprised if Nabers ended up as the Giants’ pick at six if he’s there.  

Day 2: Ja’Lynn Polk (Washington)

Sticking with the Huskies, Polk was the second option behind Odunze at Washington, but many teams would have been happy to have him as their WR1. He has a solid (if unspectacular) blend of size and speed, with good route running and reliable hands. 

Polk might not have the athletic traits to be a consistent big-play threat at the NFL level, and he benefited from Washington’s use of alignment to create free releases. However, depending on how a team wants to deploy his talents, he might be a good fit as a possession receiver from a flanker or “big slot” alignment in the pros.

Day 3: Johnny Wilson (Florida State)

Florida State’s Johnny Wilson has rare size for the position. Standing 6-foot-6 with 35-inch arms and a 37-inch vertical leap, Wilson has a catch radius that can best be described as a city zip code. Despite his size, he also has good bulk at 230 pounds but is a remarkably fluid athlete. 

He doesn’t play up to his size and doesn’t appear quite sure how to fully utilize his rare traits. Wilson will likely be drafted relatively highly based purely on his uncommon athletic profile. He’ll get comparisons to Mike Evans of the Bucs, but he needs work before he can do more than scratch his upside.
