Do you mean selling to close a position or selling a "short" put?– D StanleyCommented Nov 24, 2021 at 14:35

premiums are juiciest when the market is going down, so that's when I sell puts, personally. It depends on your outlook/goals.– Hart COCommented Nov 24, 2021 at 14:49

AFAIC, one should sell short puts when one is willing to acquire the stock at the strike price less the premium received. Otherwise, you might be asking for trouble.
