Today a NEW (ITM) Covered Call position was opened using (ticker: SOXL)
Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares , when the stock was trading for $36.45 a share I Sold (10) (ITM) Covered Call contract(s) using (1000) shares for the October-18-2024 expiration date, strike price of $32 receiving a premium of $5.9 or $1450 in up front cash flow to begin 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 > Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bull 3X Shares (SOXL)
This SOXL > (18) day trade where I'm trying to capture anywhere from 3% - 5% for a monthly Covered Call trade. This trade will make $1450. dollars which represents 3.98% on money invested.
Further Commentary as to why I did this trade
ITM CC on SOXL > If you look at the chart you will see that $31 seems to be near-term support and I just can't believe that the semiconductors will fall much below where they're at now even with a bad jobs number I'll take this as a great starting point if the stock were to fall below $32 this will be my new strike price and I can work a great 30 day covered call at $32 should I still keep my shares on October 18th this trade will represent a 3.98% cash on cash for the time frame and that is incredible because that's 19 days but again with me believing $31 is this near-term low $32 is in a bad place to start a 30-day covered call if I keep my shares on October 18th
THIS TRADE WAS PLACED INSIDE MY NON-TAXABLE IRA ACCOUNT
NO EARNINGS DURING THIS TIMEFRAME

PROJECTED PROFIT POTENTIAL (CCW PREM ONLY)
If this trade goes as planned, I will have my shares taken at my strike price and I will only collect the difference between the Real Money and Time Value which is the plan

This being an ITM Covered Call ... I did collect the premium of $5.9 but remember that I'm giving away my shares cheaper at $32 so in this case the Time Value premium profit could be $1.45 or $1450 in total premium profit if NO buy back.

HOW YOU WOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS TRADE
BUY SHARES > SELL CALL
For this trade, I already own the shares, so my total profit may or may not include stock appreciation. In your case, you would purchase the shares outright at the current trading price I’ve provided. You would then proceed to sell a near-term covered call, aiming to achieve the same premium for the same strike price and expiration date.
OF COURSE, this is all projected and the final results could have you LOSING MONEY. Ensure you understand this trade and that it meets your risk tolerance. I wish you good luck.
