My Strategy - I have large cap stock that I want to keep if possible. Goal - low risk income. First, use chart to read Weekly Bollinger Bands & Daily, Weekly, Monthly Support/Resistance Levels - If in upper range of BB & at resistance - Sell 30 day higher delta covered call (0.25) - If in bottom range of BB & at support - Sell 30 day lower delta covered call (0.15) - Take note of earnings. Sell options that expire before earnings. Did I miss anything?

What people don't realize is that the money you make on these per option is $50-100. So unless you own LOTS, you are making very little and you aren't going to get rich. Not saying you cant' do this over and over and over and over and it will add up... but just want to keep people's expectations realistic.
I think expiration date is a function of checking that your gaining time value premium in a linear fashion for each week you go out. I’ve found sometimes it’s best for 1-2 week expiration because going 3-4 weeks out barely gives any extra premium. Just something to evaluate each time
The problem with covered calls is the only ones with decent premium are the high vol assets like Tesla, Bitcoin Miners, tech small caps. Then you end up blowing your account when you get called away. It's better to just hold the assets and take your own premium in interest payments at the end of the day.
@buyethereum6911 how is he wrong? I've been learning to sell CCs and whenever I use a really good stock, it seems to run away from me and I can't possibly roll it out far enough to be worth it, so I would have made more money if I had kept the stock.
Henry, at the beginning of your video, you discuss selling call options, but your screen is set to buy calls. This would most likely bring the premium collected much lower than shown, but it’s still valid content for today and the future. Continuing to show how we should repeat the covered call process is important, just like in the wheel. Thank you
I like NIO at $6-7. I think we will see NIO at these depressed levels in 2024, Q2-Q3. I would love to sell calls on NIO. I remember when it was in the 60s, I flipped NIO for 2X when I bought it at $30 some time in 2020.
Plz don’t buy any C- stocks like NIO , alibaba, xpeng etc etc .. it’s my personal opinion.. I had very very very bad experience I lost around 300k on NIO ( they will change or manipulate the records and they will not disclose to anyone and end of the week will fucked up simple ..

Love your videos. Way different compared to people who try to sell something in the name of quick money. Very educational. I have a good amount of experience in stock market but I have never made a consistent returns. Your strategy seems interesting. I tried out a couple of times, and it worked. I need more experience to be able to say if it's gonna work in a long time or not. However, my question to use that you do make UA-cam videos, trying to educate people and make revenue out of them. Can put a small video of how much UA-cam pays you for the number of subscribers or the viewers? Talking about transparency will help a lot in people trust in your videos.
@@Dallas_Matthew It kind of worked for me today. I hadn't seen the PMCC version before, so that was informative. I haven't done a deep dive in PMCC yet, so it was interesting to see he does it with a term shorter than a leap.
I have to cut you off just 2:30 into your video. Selling CCs is NOT a bullish strategy. It`s not. The ideal scenario for selling CCs is the flat-to-slightly-bearish direction. Why? Because the flat part insures that the NAV will PROBABLY not rise above your strike price (if you followed recommended Delta choice of 20%ish) and cause your shares to get assigned away. Slightly bearish because, slightly bearish is at least not falling knife bearish, and as long as you keep collecting option premiums you continue to lower your cost basis, and so you can handle slightly bearish because overall you are stil in the black. The bullish strategy is NOT doing CCs at all, it is owning the stock, or the index, so your upside potential is not capped, as it is by definition when you are doing CCs. Your 'double bottom' thesis as your downside protection also was not valid, as NIO is way down since your video, to 6.08 as of 2/15/2024. Good luck in your trading.
Woah for real? I'm so excited. Loretta Logan strategy has normalised winning trades for me also. and it's a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started
Ill tell u something i had to do which was great and i didnt relaize it.. i was stuck in 8.50 cc and price is 1.45 above.. i made alot of premiums.. i then rolled it out made 5k more to 9 strike..then it went up i rolled it back to 8.50 collected 18k more.. then it traded sideways and on a dip i rolled it out same strike 4 weeks 8.50 and picked up another 24k.. i figued if im stuck at 8.50 i pulled out extra 50k in premiums with same 8.50 strike... o well... if this pulls back 1 dollar and i can buy them back for cheap it would of been best move i did....and im in 8.15 a share.. never thought id hope for a pull back..lol
try itm covered call and a call credit spread on top of that. supercharge income!!! 3-5 week expiry. let mek now what ya think. if youre shorting the underlying do a itm covered put and pcs.
I've been reading a lot lately on the subject can you elaborate using nio from the video. Eg strike prices on the covered and credit call? Sorry it's a bit overwhelming trying to learn all these spread strategies thanks
When you have to sell your stocks in a covered call option contract do you get the money you spent on the 100 stocks back. For example, if 100 stocks cost me $246 and I receive a premium of $165. Then when I have to sell those stocks will I have a net +$165 OR a net -$81.
Henry - when do you roll a SPY covered call option that is over your SP? I’m thinking of rolling my SPY $460 ending this Friday today vs later on the week since market is green. Thoughts?
Thank you so much for your video, you opened a door for me to earn some passive income in my retirement. I have one question about selling cover call. If I sell a cover call at $10 which expire at the end of next month, from now and the end of the month, if the price goes higher than $10 in the middle of the contract, will my shares be called away on that date or at the end of the month?
Hello Henry, I have two covered calls in Tesla money, one of 90 and another of 100 respectively with an expiration date in January 2025. I don't know what I should do whether to take an upward roll or wait for the expiration to get closer.
@@aaaproduction6869 well, i'm honestly surprised that you haven't been early assigned yet if you had sold calls at 90 & 100. at this point, i'm not sure you could roll up & out far enough to get a credit to where your strike is above your cost basis...even if you went out to jan 2026.
Ok. What was rational? This makes no sense unless you thought Tesla would drop hard hard You really never ever sell covered call on LEAP. only reason I could think is needing the cash to pay bills why you’d risk gains on Tesla.. and or a massive order of thousands and wanting to limit cap gains tax Why would you not sell atm that day of writing I can’t even comprehend this. I’d assume you’re stuck as they prolly ain’t even anything you can roll to further out nor would I recommend that given risk for Tesla to go up even more
@@aaaproduction6869 so you basically sold covered calls long ago at below stock price and never rolled them on the way up and did not close the positions because you believed Tesla would fall back hard again... happened to me with Palantir. There is not much you can do, you lost a lot of money. You might want to close one of your two tesla covered calls at a major price drop, keep the shares , wait to rise and sell a covered call at the top! Selling cover calls is an art trying to find the sweet spot that the stock price will not surpass at the time of your expiration.. or you sell a covered call deep in the money for securing a large cash premium if you want to still own the stocks but believe that the price will drop significantly within the first half of the option period
wouldnt this be good for a covered call strategy? since the stock didnt hit the strike? only bad thing would be that your shares of the nio are depreciating? or am i dumb
If you get called on a PMCC on your first trade in do you receive the credit back for the long call position you took or is that all sacrificed if you actually were to reach the strike on your short call?
Can you please do a latest video on the same content related to best stocks to run covered calls at this point with significant run up on most of the stocks. Thanks
Curious how NIO worked out over time, selling calls each month the stock was imploding. I suspect the strategy is at a loss right now? Also, not exactly fair to call a strategy in which you're long such a speculative stock as 'conservative.'
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience and educating us. I love these PMCC. Please keep educating us on PMCC and managing them properly, as well as other strategies.
A safer stock for option sells would be one with a rising chart, not falling. If the stock gets called away you make money on both your OTM sold options and the shares.
I’m curious why you can buy a call that is so much in the money (TSLA at 210)for an expiration date months from now. I thought once you buy a call option you can sell it once it’s in the money but if you buy already in the money why not just sell it? What am I missing?
I was really hoping to lead how to do a Coved Call but got completely lost either way all the side chatter. I understand it’s not scripted but following an outline with training objectives would be a huge improvement.
I would not recommend nio.. un profitable for ever.. and nkt even getting close.. re looking back at this video and not following nio is 6 dollars.. yikes...
