I Sold (10Covered Call contract(s)using (10) shares for the September-29-2023 Expiration Date, $86.00 Strike Price receiving a Premium of $2.05 or $2050 in upfront cash flow to begin this trade. | |||||||||
| COMMENTARY AS TO WHY I OPENED THIS TRADE | |||||||||
| WHY I OPENED this CCW on MS > Morgan seems to be trading in a range of $82 - $90, so I got involved as this seems to have a little Upside and maybe over the next 31 days it just stays above $86 ... | |||||||||
| > as with every trade, I will manage this trade as it approaches expiration ... buying back the option if it adheres to my -50% and 0.10 cent guidelines. -50% guideline being, such this option price fall 50% or more in the first 2 weeks I will buy back and look to roll the option - if the this option falls to 0.10 or less (in most cases) I will buy back the option and roll it for another credit if it presents itself. | |||||||||
