COVERED CALL
DETAILS FOR THIS COVERED CALL TRADE
Today a NEW Covered Call position was opened using 3x Shares (YINN)
Direxion Daily FTSE China Bull 3x Shares was trading for $19.9 a share when I placed this trade. I then sold (10) Covered Call contract(s) using/controlling (1000) shares for the December-29-2023 Expiration Date, $20.5.00 Strike Price receiving a Premium of $0.95 or $950 in up front cash flow to begin this trade. I used a LIMIT ORDER trying to gain the MID price which in this case I was able.

WHAT IF YOUR SHARES ARE TAKEN? (CLOSEOUT LEAPS SOLD)
If my shares are taken, that means the stock has moved above my strike price of $20.5 which means I will make both the Covered Call Premium of $0.95 and I will basically have to SELL my LEAPS call option which is projected to be priced at $6.79. This will result in a profit as my LEAPS will be sold higher then where I bought it I will have used this LEAPS call option for (3) trades.

General plan for my Covered Call Write Cash on Cash % investments > I like to generate a 3% Cash on Cash return on my money invested ... depending on the timeframe ... 1 week, 1% is ok but if 30 days I want more like 3 to 4% preferred
COMMENTARY AS TO WHY I OPENED THIS TRADE
WHY I OPENED this CCW on YINN > YINN hits my radar last week as being in BABA, I noticed that this is the 3X ETF to the China Large Cap ETF FXI ... so with it trading near its (1) year low I just feel if Im going to take a position, this is a good spot ... obviously VERY risky ... but it is the INDEX to the largest of China stocks which wont collapse if your asking me ... will manage as it goes. > IF my shares are taken at this strike price, my expected LEAPS value will be $6.79 , my cost basis is $6.3 > I have an ITM Apr2024, $15 Strike, 0.78 Delta LEAPS Call Option in place to support this trade. I paid $6.30 > Where does my LEAPS currently stand? (+) > The stock is trading above what would be my 'cost basis' for the shares (ie, the LEAPS is up) so if my shares are taken I will make money on the LEAPS Call Option 
> 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.
GOLDEN RULES OF COVERED CALL WRITING (AVOIDING EARNINGS)
WILL THEY HAVE EARNINGS?Verify-YINNNO
Try to avoid Earnings Reports > Earnings can be a stocks most volitile moment so its important to try to avoid writing a covered call thru or near earnings. Even great stocks can move +/- 10% on earnings
GOLDEN RULES OF COVERED CALL WRITING (DIVIDEND EX-DATE)
WILL COMPANY HAVE AN EX-DATEVerify-YINNNO
Try to avoid EX-Dates > Companies that have dividends will trade differently in and around its EX-Date ... keep this in mind when writing a covered call as you might have your shares taken if its profitable for the Call Buyer.
-50% , -10% RULES (PRICES WHEN I MIGHT BUY BACK)
Premium-50% Rule10% Rule
$0.95$0.48$0.10
What does this mean? If within the first week the option falls 50% I will buy back the option and look to roll for another credit ... if the option falls to 10% of the value, I will buy back and roll.
