This is not a trade recommendation, this is a trade idea. I'm not a financial advisor, anything written here should be taken with a grain of salt. I take no responsibility If you will decide to invest
Here at OptionsBrew.com, we like the idea of selling options on "good" dividend stocks, preferably from the Dow Jones list, but we make exceptions, and one such exception is Germany's Dax Index, Inc.
There are a couple of stocks we like there, but one is we like the most (for options trading)- Deutsche Bank (ETR: DBK).
As we like trading bank stocks (in our arsenal there is ING bank from the Netherlands, Bank of America, PBCT, and WFC from the US), just obvious Deutsche Bank popped on our radar.
