Strike Prices for Covered Call Beginners - FULL Explanation

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
  • In this video, I do a beginner's step-by-step tutorial on how to sell a covered call and go in-depth on how I choose strike prices using my 3 guidelines:
    1. Do I want to keep or sell my shares?
    2. Which delta do I choose?
    -Keep: 0.10-0.30
    -Sell: 0.30-0.50
    3. Look at the charts
    -Horizontal lines (support and resistance)
    -Diagonal channels (support and resistance)
    Keep in mind that when you sell covered calls, you will always risk getting your shares called away.
    In the end, see what fits your risk tolerance and lets you sleep better at night.
    Let me know if there are any other topics you would like me to make a video on. I greatly thank all of you for your support all these years.
    I hope you get a lot of value from this video!
    -Steve :)

    What happens if the stock never hits the strike price by the expiration date? Do you just keep the stock or does it sell at the strike price regardless?

    • @Peaceofmind7071
      @Peaceofmind7071 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If the price at the expiration day DOES NOT pass the strike price, you will keep the premium and the your shares.
      If the price at the expiration day is HIGHER than strike price, you still keep the premium and your shares will be hauled away at the strike price.
      The upside of sell covered call is you collect a little money while your shares sitting in your account doing nothing.
      The downside is you will miss out the unexpected spike in price and losing protential gain.
      It is all up to your greedy and tolerance.
