I thought about out of money covered calls. Doubtful of a big breakout Wednesday/Thursday and possibly some retrenchment. Blowout sales seem wishful area for surprise would be China shipments already en route. I don’t think 60,000- 62,000 3’s sold will cause a huge rally, but 52,000-54,000 could cause pullback. Same on SX sales under 26,000.What do you do when 100% of your portfolio are your core shares? And any new money you can bring is less than mouse nuts? And swapping to leaps is not possible without market time gap, as your broker enforces shares/options settlement date difference, i.e. will not let you sell shares, buy options on the same day?
It's a rhetorical question, just so you consider that your advice doesn't work for some people that are fully invested
I have a couple of calls likely to expire worthless, so hope I’m wrong, but lotto money at this point.
