Running a RDVY wheel strategy lets you generate consistent premium income on First Trust Rising Dividend Achievers ETF while setting your own entry and exit prices on the underlying. First Trust Rising Dividend Achievers ETF's wheel combines cash-secured puts and covered calls into a repeatable cycle: sell puts at strikes where you'd be happy to own RDVY, and if assigned, sell calls at strikes where you'd be happy to sell. Use our scanner to find the best RDVY wheel strategy setups in real time.
The wheel works best on liquid, high-quality names with stable fundamentals and active options markets — exactly the profile many large-cap leaders fit. The mechanics are simple: sell a cash-secured put on RDVY, collect premium, and either keep the premium if it expires worthless or take assignment at a discount to current price. Once assigned, sell covered calls against the shares to keep collecting premium until they're called away. Choosing the right strikes, expirations, and IV environment is what separates a profitable RDVY wheel from a losing one.
The Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the fees and expenses) of the Nasdaq US Rising Dividend Achievers Index (the "Index"). The Fund will normally invest at least 90% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities that comprise the Index. The Index is comprised of a selection of companies with a history of raising their dividends and that exhibit the characteristics to potentially continue doing so in the future. The Index construction process considers a company's earnings growth, levels of cash compared to debt and the amount of earnings that are paid out as dividends.
The difference between a wheel that compounds and one that bleeds comes down to strike selection, IV timing, and discipline on assignment. Our scanner handles the heavy lifting: it ranks every leg of the RDVY wheel strategy by delta, premium yield, IV rank, and days to expiration, so you can deploy capital where the math works. Build your RDVY wheel strategy on data, not gut feel — and let the options wheel do what it does best: pay you to wait.
