I have sold puts before, and I prefer a conservative approach. I focus on stocks I already want to own, then look at support, IV and the trend before choosing an OTM strike with enough buffer. My goal is either to collect premium or get assigned at a price I am comfortable with.

I agree that the biggest mistake is chasing premium. Higher IV and ATM strikes can mean higher assignment risk, especially around earnings. I would rather collect less premium and sleep better at night.

For execution, I prefer limit orders when spreads are wide. I also want an exit or rolling plan before entering. To me, cash-secured puts are more about disciplined entry and premium income than maximizing short-term returns.
