As an option seller, I am often trying to find stock that have high IV and ideally, stock towards the upper end range of IV rank. The higher the implied volatility (IV) for a stock, the higher the premiums are for the options contracts. As options sellers, we’re typically trying to pull in as much premium as possible. In this video we’ll be trying to create a short list of companies that pay significantly more premium than other underlying’s and attempt to puts volatility contraction on our side.

Creating a scan for high volatility can save you time and deliver a short list of companies that match your criteria. You can also expand on this scan by adding fundamental filters or anything else you find important to refine this list further.

In this video we’ll specifically go through adding a scan for Implied volatility, IV rank, Implied volatility vs historical volatility, and some additional stock filters to narrow this list down to more liquid underlying’s. This will all be done through the stock hacker on ThinkorSwim.
