| Further Commentary as to why I did this trade | |||||||||
| BITX ( 2x Leveraged ETF to Bitcoin) > Bitcoin pulled back from a recent all-time high and continues to fall. BIDX dropped from 68 all the way down to 61.82. I believe this could fall as low as 58.50, but I also believe that by this coming Friday it could trade back above 59–60. In that case, we would have our shares called away, making $1,080 in this short time frame of just 7 days. This is how we use downside protection, and this is how we achieve 99% winning trades. We give up a little premium profit on the front side in exchange for strong downside protection. The stock fell from 61.82 and even traded below 60 this morning, but now it’s back above 60 and pushing toward 61. That’s what downside protection does for us—it allows me to feel totally comfortable. And if it were to fall to 58.50, that would still be a great place to continue owning the shares and writing covered calls at my cost basis. | |||||||||

| This being an ITM Covered Call ... I did collect the premium of $4.4 but remember that I'm giving away my shares cheaper at $58.5 so in this case the Time Value premium profit could be $1.08 or $1080 in total premium profit if NO buy back. | |||||||||

 | HOW YOU WOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS TRADE | | |||||||
| ITM CC 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. | |||||||||
