DETAILS FOR THIS CASH SECURED PUT TRADE
Today a NEW Cash Secured Put position was opened using GraniteShares 2x Long COIN Daily ETF (ticker: CONL) when the stock was trading for $30.5 a shares. I sold (10) Cash Secured Put contract(s) using (1000) shares worth of money for the (August)-15-2025 Expiration Date, $27 Strike Price receiving a Premium of $0.9 of $900 in upfront cash flow to begin this trade. This would be an (OTM) Cash Secured Put.
COMMENTARY AS TO WHY I OPENED THIS TRADE
WHY I OPENED this CSP on > CONL
This trade begins as a (9) day trade where I'm trying to capture anywhere from 1.2% - 1.3% for a weekly Cash Secured Put and 3% or more for a monthly expiration. This trade will make $900 which is 3.33% on money invested
Further commentary as to why I opened this trade >
CONL ( 2x Leveraged ETF to Coinbase ) > Coinbase has been cut nearly in half following its earnings, and its 2x leveraged ETF has fallen from 72 all the way down to 30. I'm planning to enter at a 27 strike, largely because that’s approximately where it broke resistance around June 17th. I believe that if Wall Street is going to sell it off to support, they would pull it back to 27. So we're going to plant our flag there. This is a very short trade—just nine days—and I believe it could pull back to 27. If it does, that would be a great place to start a covered call campaign.
2 trade plan (Cash Secured Put + Covered Call) if needed a second trade >
This trade is , trade #1 ... a CSP for a premium profit of $900. If this trade expires worthless of I buy the option back profitable later , all good but if I were to be assigned the shares and the stock price in a worse case scenario fell an additional -$0 , I could then do an at my cost basis CCW making a possible $2.32 (hypothetical based on the trade numbers at the time of this post) so that would be $0.9 for trade #1 and $2.32 for trade #2 which would equal (these being 2 week trades for each) $3.22 in ~2 weeks
> 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.
