DETAILS FOR THIS COVERED CALL TRADE
Today, (10) Covered Call contract(s) were bought back on ticker: AAPU
Because I bought this option back early, I did not make max profit. The final profit / cash flow collected is posted below. Note, instead of making the original premium profit projections. I bought this option back for $4.24 causing a debit in the position but then SOLD the supporting LEAPS Call Option for a profit as outlined below.

COMMENTARY AS TO WHY I ENDED THIS TRADE
WHY I OPENED this PMCC Trade on > AAPU
Apple races higher and with over 1 week until expire I take this money off the table , making an incredible gain picking the perfect moment to get back into Apple.

BUY BACK + LEAPS SALE




this is the PMCC/LEAPS version of the same trade. With 10 contracts controlling 1,000 shares:

TradePer Share10 Contracts
Bought LEAPS-$25.40-$25,400
Sold LEAPS+$30.00+$30,000
LEAPS profit+$4.60+$4,600
CC premium received+$1.30+$1,300
CC buyback-$4.24-$4,240
Covered-call loss-$2.94-$2,940
FINAL PROFIT+$1.66+$1,660

💰 Final Profit: $1,660

Your original LEAPS investment was $25,400, so your return on capital was approximately 6.54%.

And this makes for an interesting comparison with the 1,000-share version you just gave me:

Shares: $40,350 invested → $2,010 profit = 4.98%

99-delta/LEAPS: $25,400 invested → $1,660 profit = 6.54%

So the shares made $350 more actual profit, but the LEAPS produced the better percentage return while requiring $14,950 less capital.

LETTING MONEY BUILD THE ACCOUNT SIZE
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
