TIME AND DATE STAMP | .		July 8, 2020
My brief explanation why I ended this trade early
UPRO Krum ... with this recent CCW, Jul-17, $50 strike for which I got paid $1.14 falling over -50% within the first week of the time frame, I decided to buy back, take the Krum off the board and now wait for another opportunity for making another krum profit ... maybe even pushing out the timeframe ... to be determined. My UPRO shares are now uncovered and I sit ...
The Headline Krum! (ACTUAL)

How I could 'Manage' this trade should the stock rise or fall prior to expiration
I could manage this Covered Call - #1 - The stock moves and closes on expiration above my strike price. My shares will be given assigned to the Call Buyer, I will be given cash for my shares (strike price)
I could manage this Covered Call - #2 - The stock does not close at or above my strike by expiration, I will likely not have my shares taken from me. I keep my shares, I keep the Covered Call premium. Trade ends. Shares become available to trade.
I could manage this Covered Call - #3 - Regardless of where the stock moves during the Covered Call timeframe, a news event or Ex-Date prompts the Call buyer or market maker to take my shares before expiration. Most common situation, the stock has moved up and now trades near or above the strike price making it profitable to exercise the Call option early for the Call Buyer to collect the dividend.
