| DETAILS FOR THIS COVERED CALL TRADE | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Today I CLOSED this Covered Call position on (TNA) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Today, (20) Covered Call contracts were bought back on Direxion Daily Small Cap Bull 3x Shares (ticker: TNA) for the (October)-31-2025 Expiration Date, $47 Strike Price for a Premium of $3.25 > TNA was trading for $49.6 a share. Because I bought this option back early, I did not make max profit. The final profit / cash flow collected it posted below. Instead of making the original premium, I collected $3 or 0.81% of the total projected cash flow for this trade. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| COMMENTARY AS TO WHY I CLOSED THIS TRADE | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| WHY I CLOSED this CCW Trade on > TNA | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Maybe TNA finishes above $47, maybe it doesn’t — but I’m taking the “we take what the market gives us” approach. The market is up, which means writing a next-week covered call using these shares will bring in more premium now than it likely will later, especially if the markets start to tail off. The ITM premium was $0.65, so I buy this back for $0.25 ... making less ... but my cost basis remains the same ... so I will ROLL this into next week for another , now OTM Covered Call with the $47 as my cost basis ... I probably pulled the trigger on the buy back too soon ... the stock is rallying but I have a Halloween parade to go to for my grand daughter so we take care of business and not look back :) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| -50% , -10% RULES (PRICES WHEN I MIGHT BUY BACK) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Premium | -50% | 10% Rule | My Buy Back was? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| $3.25 | $1.63 | $0.33 | $0.25 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| -50% Rule? | Percentage Down | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| YES | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 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. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| DID I COLLECT A DIVIDEND DURING THIS TIMEFRAME? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| No, I did not collect a dividend because either > they did not have an Ex-Date during this timeframe > my shares were taken prior to the Ex-Date | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Because this is in my non-taxable account I'm just going to use the premium to build the account size to make more premium versus buying dividend paying funds will save that for all my taxable accounts and with no tax implications we're not going to put any money in the tax bucket either | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| TNA (3X Leveraged ETF to the Russell 2000) > The markets are moving higher, and so is TNA. We’re going to take advantage of this move and give ourselves some downside protection.

| 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 | |||||||||

| DAYS ON | INTRINSIC VALUE | TIME VALUE | Cash on Cash % | ||||||
| 4 | $2.60 | $0.65 | 1.31% | ||||||
| This being an ITM Covered Call ... I did collect the premium of $3.25 but remember that I'm giving away my shares cheaper at $47 so in this case the Time Value premium profit could be $2.74 or $6500 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. | |||||||||
