DETAILS FOR THIS COVERED CALL TRADE
Today a NEW (OTM) Covered Call position was opened using Phillips 66 (ticker: PSX)
Phillips 66 , when the stock was trading for $113.93 a share I Sold (5) (OTM) Covered Call contract(s) using (500) shares for the November-24-2023 expiration date, strike price of $115 receiving a premium of $1 or $500 in up front cash flow to begine this trade.

> 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.
COMMENTARY AS TO WHY I OPENED THIS TRADE
WHY I OPENED this CCW on > PSX > CCW + DIV CAPTURE Trade > using PSX, its Ex-Date is Nov-16th, were picking the $115 strike in hopes the stock moves there and I have my shares taken in 3 days at $115 ... if not, we pick up the dividend in hopes over the next 11 days the stock finishes above the strike of $115 having the shares taken, making max profit > I also feel the stock is trading in a near term range I feel I can manage, I've decided to buy shares and write the OTM strike in hopes the stock will recover a bit and move higher allowing me to catch a little stock apprecation and covered call premium and having my shares taken for another possible MAX profit trade.
