NEW ITM CCW TRADE
NEW 99 DELTA ITM COVERED CALL TRADE IS NOWOPEN
The 0.99 delta covered call strategy means that instead of purchasing the shares outright, I buy a 2–3 month in-the-money call option (what I refer to as a LEAPS) to simulate stock ownership. The key requirement is that the time value (extrinsic premium) on the LEAPS must be under 0.5%. Additionally, when combining the cost of that time value with the premium received from selling the covered call, the total position must meet my target. A minimum cash-on-cash return of 1.2% per week on an in-the-money covered call basis is preferred.

DETAILS FOR THIS COVERED CALL TRADE
Today a NEW Covered Call position was opened using IREN
When the stock/ETF was trading for $61.55 a share I SOLD (20) Covered Call contract(s) using controlling interest via an ITM LEAPS Call Option (see details below) for (2000) shares for the Jun-26 expiration date, strike price of $54 receiving a premium of $8.7 or $1.15 in Time Value premium, making $2300 in up front cash flow to begin this trade with a LEAPS cost basis of $61.56 which when you combine my LEAPS Strike Price + my LEAPS premium I paid this would make my combined share price cost basis be $61.65 to break even on the trade.

This being an ITM Covered Call ... I did collect the premium of $8.7 but remember that I'm giving away my shares cheaper at $54 so in this case the Time Value premium profit could be $1.15 or $2300 in total premium profit if NO buy back.
