I found all this extremely helpful. You have shown me how to play this and protect yourself with covered calls. I have been playing it wrong and I am glad your knowledge has corrected my thinking! Thanks for being willing to share at no cost to us
Every time I watch one of these videos where you explain the question that is on everyone's mind (because every other UA-camr tells you that you are in trouble if the strike price goes above and you will be assigned), I feel like I have leveled up in knowledge. These videos are so important! Please keep it up. I am enjoying every one.
Hey mark, I had to let you know that I was able to buy my 100 shares of Mstr back at 34500 and I bought an extra 10 shares with the extra money just because. I have to be honest I was thinking I might have to buy back higher and I would have because I don’t want to lose my shares. I got lucky this time and I will be more careful in the future. Nothing against plumbers but I’m just a plumber trying to plan for retirement and last Friday I got busy and couldn’t check the market for several hours and when I checked after the market closed my covered call 360 got exercised! Thanks to you I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel!
@@guyhickson7332 great. Plumbing is a fantastic career. In fact, I recommend to kids graduating that they consider the trades. AI is going to crush white collar jobs and the plumbers (and options sellers) will rule the world….
There are many ways to play options. If you know the direction of the market and stocks, you can be very successful. If you get good at it, you will never be forced to work for anyone in your life. The juice is also very tasty.
Quick question, now that I know about the whipsaw concept, is MSTR considered a whipsaw stock since 11/15 till now? or does whipsaw need more higher highs and lower lows than what mstr has gone through the last month and few days? I see it starting 11/15 at 358 then goes to 473 11/20 then 398 11/21 then 423 then 355 then 404 then 358 then 410 then 325 then 364 then 331 then today 360. so these are just ups and downs ups and downs.
@@Nathan00at78Uuiu whipsaw can happen with no trend in place. I don’t feel very whipsawed at the moment. The key as you know now is to focus on that juice and not getting sucked into chasing it up. (Also, congratulations on passing the final exam)…
Hi Mark, In the video above around 7:25 time into the video, you mentioned that if the short calls are assigned you would be -700 shares short. In that case you would just exercise the 7 base positions at $175 strike to cover the short. In other words you have to have about 123K to buy 700 shares to cover the shorts. Is that correct?
I think that I almost understand, one thing is still bothering me: When rolling ITM calls aren't those worth more then what you bought them for? Isn't that basically realizing a loss?
That’s also what confuses me. If I sold a call for 20 and now it’s worth 31, if I buy to close I’d now lose 11. I’m not sure where the posture EV or “juice” is coming from or calculated. I don’t see that in fidelity or Robinhood, Every time I had this situation, to avoid losses I bought back the ITM short and sold the long. That’s why I’ve always sold my calls at the breakeven point for the long. Mark, are there other videos you recommend to better explain your set up? Thanks! And happy holidays !🎉
I have been using cash covered puts on stocks I’m wanting to buy anyway such as Mara, riot and other miners that are following the Mstr plan. If we get assigned it’s no big deal because we can then use them to sell covered calls. I just wish I had enough money to buy cash secured puts for Mstr or even Tesla!!!
Merry Christmas Mark Just a quick one - at 07:40 min in the video when you saying your brokerage won’t close your base position if your short calls expire in the money , what would happen if you didn’t have enough cash sitting in the broker and didn’t have any leverage account with broker ? How would you be exercised on those short calls or how would you be short 700 shares of MSTR in that case ?guessing as you mention right after it , you’d be forced to purchase your short calls which would have expired in the money for the Sake of the this example using your working capital?
One of the very helpful things about these videos that isn't obvious. The stocks you are picking is a big deal. I wouldn't have thought to trade MSTR, very volatile and no conventional metrics, just driven by bitcoin. I am trading TSLA but mainly post election You make your money when the stock goes up and these stocks are all over. I used to trade SPY because it was consistent and went up predictably. Not as much premium but safe. But SPY ran through the shorts so often it was better to just go long. I am in META which is more volatile than SPY or AAPL but more stable than TSLA. i think the difference might be the META trading range seems to be smaller and the shorts don't go too deep in the money. So I roll them quite often taking profits along the way.
Hi Mark.. UA-cam referred me to your channel with my recent interest in MSTR. Where do you recommend beginner traders not familiar at all with covered calls? Your ebook, UA-cam channel or your online course?
@@tcotroneo Hi. Well I have a lot here but much if it assumes you understand options. Still I have some beginner stuff here too. My free ebook describes a lot and my Cash Flow Machine Fast Launch Course is a complete program from beginner to advanced (5 weeks)… glad you are here….

The 330 short calls will have even more delta for Thursday and Friday. It jumped from 0.5 to 0.85 whereas long only increase from 0.9 to 0.91. You are making money because you bought 1 extra call -7 vs +8. If stock price does not drop. Rolling is indeed the way to avoid assignment and it only costs some extra time to collect juice. So, I was correct on yesterday comment
you were right to a degree. the covered calls are catching up and upside is eventually capped, but the deeper in the money calls still made $3.50 more per contract then the covered call (or $6 if you go by the mrk chg column). Not sure which is more correct since Scwab took over TOS. So, even without the 8th contract, he could have just closed the 7 of each out for $2450 (or $4200 if using the $6 mrk chg). profit in a day and reloaded, but that;s not really his strategy. he trades for the income/juice, not capital gains and the $20 of juice pads him from 310-350. maybe it's just not your preferred strategy. Thar's OK. we all have different goals. In any case, they didn't expire, they didn't get called away, and there are still 2 more trading days this week who knows whatll happen? i have a similar position.(but only 1 of each), though i am overall bullish this time of year, i did not close either call and am not losing money. up about $350 today
@ the last day 0 dte will tell. The long call still weight more 0.91 vs 0.86. Of course, there is profit. He has to close them in order to have profit. Like I said tomorrow and Friday, the short will be close to 1.0. That is where you see the loss. The juice is good when you have profit and take it. When stock doesn’t drop to 330. There is no juice. Rolling is in fact a waste of 1 week at exchange for higher strike. I have similar trade too but it is at 1/17 expiration.
Thank you for another great video Mark, and Merry Christmas to you and yours! You mention the market is currently red, what indicator/s do you use that provides you with the market being green, red, or flat?
Thanks so much for helping us to learn. I have watched the whole MSTR playlist, obv the first one too, and I'l be honest I still don't understand 100% how the synthetfics work 100%, although I understand how to open it. If you might please be able to do a video where you explain the details of synthetics to someone who has no experience with them and who had previously only sold CCs or CSPs. FESTIVUS!!!
Thanks again. Luckily, I am fortunate to have bought $MSTR at $125 a share in August. Thus, mine are true covered calls. I do sell my calls a little further out of the money, as I never want my shares called away. Would you do anything different if you owned the shares?
I’m in the same boat! Been buying for years until I actually had 100 shares so now I can take it to the next level! Are you using a Roth IRA for your strategy?
I think Mark recommends the same strategy whether you own the stocks outright or using synthetics. Owning the stocks outright is what he wants people starting out with his system to do. Later, he teaches you to use synthetics for leverage.
I've been following you for a couple weeks, and I'm trying to piece together your strategy. I get the whole covered call premise but if your using what I call "roll till you win" method what purpose does the ITM call really serve other then lowering your margin requirement? I assume you don't have any interest in owning Tesla or MSTR in the longer term? Or maybe that's the part I'm missing?? For the call your selling against your putting up alot of capital to start with and if you don't want to buy the underlying to pledge for assignment, but then your rolling it out anyway why bother having the ITM call in the first place?
I wondered this too derek until I realized that my broker (Schwab) will not allow the selling of a Covered Call without a base position (something about the possible unlimited loss if the underlying rises dramatically). And the Long Calls require much less capital than buying the stock for the base position to sell the weekly calls against. At least that's how I understand it. I learn a little more with every video you release Mark, thank you.
@@TraderPhil98use a good broker like IBKR, I sell naked otm calls on MSTR, I have the ability to buy the underlying and the only time I have had to do that was the week it ran to 550, I had sold the 500s earlier that week so I had to buy shares at 500 which I ended up selling at 500 on the Thursday when the price collapsed. I lost a bit on the buy and sell but still kept the vast majority of the $26 in premium I collected.
@coveredcalls I mean having a base position at all, I just see it as tying up capital since your intent is to roll out regardless. You obviously have the capital to buy the underlying. What am I missing?
Merry Christmas. Started watching your videos and I have to say that your strategy is definitely different. Bit confusing to me as I am too naive but maybe one day when I can afford I’ll join your discord. 🙏🏽
Mark, I truly appreciate your explanations. I've been a follower ever since I saw how much juice you're making! Could you go where when you have a chance about how you built your base position and what things you look into when establishing a base position?
Thanks for all you provide for information Mark ! It's too bad that you feel you have to explain your strategy over and over again. I also thank you for providing your brokerage platform as I would love use synthetics . Happy holidays to you !
Love your show. Thanks so much for your insight into selling calls. As a novice what would be really helpful to me is to see the worst case scenario and see how exactly things can go wrong and then how to avoid that. I know you just roll a call but there's this deep fear that I'm missing something and it could go terribly wrong especially with multiple contracts.
@@TIKIWOLF Thanks for watching. Here is the worst case scenario: the stock drops a to zero and you lose all your money. I don’t know how you avoid that other than having rules in place…set up a trading plan, learn, grow, get educated. Don’t trade from fear other than to set parameters. Happy holidays…
I spoke to my broker and they said that if the covered call option is in the money, even over by a penny, it will be exercised every time and the shares will be called away early. You said this doesn’t happen often but my broker said the system they use does it automatically. I’m trying to grasp this strategy and I’m still not understanding.
it's quite rare for the long option holder who you sold the option to, to exercise early because they would be giving up all the extrinsic value that the option still contains at the time of early exercise. the time value (extrinsic value) of a long option that is in them money typically outweighs the benefit of early assignment until about 2 weeks or less before expiration, depending on how deep in the money the option is.
Just curious what exchange you are using? I’m on Robinhood and Schwab and they are both as Mark described in that if we wait until expiration they will get assigned but if we pay attention we can roll.
Hey Mark, as an alternative to MSTR (P/B=20), If you're bullish on bitcoin, would you consider investing in bitcoin spot etf, like IBIT and selling weekly ITM calls against ?
I had invested $200K in MicroStrategy back in August 2020, and today it's worth over $1.16M. With over 3,250 shares at $358 each. I ddnt sell any did i do right? Or its better to sell them and buy when its low i think its more profit.. what is your suggestions? Merry Christmas btw

when you roll, does it show you what your up from both the initial trade and then the roll? or do u have to keep track?
You are just establishing a new position so you will see your basis per share of the new position (some random number) , not the avg price you received when you rolled for credit. You have to track it yourself
@@24hrstolive27 keep a spreadsheet.
@@coveredcallshi mark when rolling up cc do we need collateral for that?
@ you will need cash/working capital, yes.,
