In this video we are talking about the complete covered calls process for the complete beginner options investor to sell covered calls. We will talk about what covered calls are, what exactly is a covered call, what is an options chain and everything in between, including a live look-in to my own dividend portfolio to sell a covered call.

Hi Joe, thanks for the video. I've always been interested in learning more about options and I really appreciate your help. Maybe I'm just slow, but I think I'm going to need to watch your video a few more times for it to all sink in. I hope you'll do more of these. Maybe make them a little bit longer for us slower learners. It felt a bit rushed, but maybe that's just because I need to learn the basics. Maybe I missed it, but why do you go with the 20 delta? Has your experience shown you that's the best risk/reward for most covered calls?

Great introduction to covered calls!!!! As a suggestion, on the next video for covered calls, you might want to address the "Greeks" in the analytics, especially the interplay of "Delta" and "Theta." Also, a good discussion would be call options expiring on the Friday during the week when the underlying stock goes Ex-Dividend. The ability to track "extrinsic value" relative to the per share dividend can help in "dividend harvesting." Specifically, when the "extrinsic value" is less than the per share dividend before the ex-dividend date, there is an extremely high probability of being assigned. Even if the dividend is lost, hopefully the option premium compensates for the foregone dividend. There should be some mention that under current U.S. Federal Income Tax Rules, gains on expired call options or gains on closing short call positions are ALWAYS treated as "Short Term Capital Gains" which are taxed at ordinary income rates. Finally, it woukd be nice to point out that gains on closed short call positions or expirations within the year are effectively reductions in the basis of the initial stock position. This can be a factor in a "tax loss harvesting" strategy towards the end of the tax year.

2 comments 1) i think that it is worth mentionning that fidelity quotes prices based on the ask if you are short covered calls. So right after buying it always looks like you have lost money. 2) i dont like the standing order to buy back at 10%. You may be likely to only get that in the late hours of the last day where it is essentially worthless if out of the money.

Hopefully my brokerage will give me the ok and I can start covered calls and cash covered puts on SPY soon. My math is saying if I am successful 80% of the time it’ll be somewhere between +$1500-$3000 per month.

Think of it as a way to increase the effective yield on a stock you want to own anyway. If the price goes down, you write another call. Three calls per quarter plus the dividend is good income. If you invest for the dividend income, you want the stock to go down so you can buy more shares when you reinvest the dividend. Obviously you don't want it to go to zero and you don't want it to cut the dividend, but other than that, you just keep writing calls and collecting dividends. Eventually it will get called and you will have to sell the stock, but then you either buy it again and keep going or you use the proceeds to buy a different stock and start writing calls on it.

I'm very new to this so here's my example to have further clarification. Let's say I'm down $300 on 100 shares of X stock. If I want to make up for this loss, do I find a covered call with a bid price of $3.00? It shows about a delta of .43 if I want to make a covered call at $3.00 bid price. The strike price is exactly my original entry of buying 100 shares with a 15 day expiry. Thanks in advance, love the videos!
@jz3430
@jz3430 Жыл бұрын
If you find a covered call for $3 after your stock declines by $3, then it would have a strike price that is lower than your cost basis. Therefore, if you sell the call for a $3 premium, then you would likely be forced to sell your shares for a $4 or $5 loss if the call expires in the money.
@jz3430
@jz3430 Жыл бұрын
The best way to make up for that loss is to sell multiple contracts and hold onto your shares until you have at least broke even.

So since you already have them at $88 then you would also profit even if it got called correct? Since you are covered you when either way as long as you are good at selling the stocks at the strike price? Great video. I think I finally get it but wanted to confirm this one part. Thank you

Can you force them to exercise the option? I sell a call for 5 bucks, my stock hits the strike price. Exercise the option, I keep my 5 bucks and move on.

Great question! Yes, this can occur if you are committed to getting right AFTER selling for a loss. If this occurs it is best to find a like-kind investment instead. THANK YOU for watching and for leaving your $0.02 in the comments! 👍😎

You have probably said this in previous videos, but what platform do you use to show that option chain? (never mind, it was shown later in ther video... Fidelity) Thanks! These videos have been awesome and I'm looking at starting to sell covered calls soon.

@@AverageJoeInvestor as crazy as it is, I watched you first when you were doing stimulus videos because I was doing stimulus videos back then too and I wanted to see what others were doing. I always thought your stimulus videos were so honest and to the point, which as you know was so rare in those, that when I saw that you pivoted to investing I had to see what you had to say. You have taught me a bunch about investing with dividend stocks and now I have two friends of mine interested in selling covered calls because of your videos. Anyway man, love the videos, keep up the great work. -Justin

@@AverageJoeInvestor Thanks for responding. I just watched the video again and I saw the $58.31. It went by fast, so I musted have blinked and missed it. I just opened a Fidelity account w/ Tier 1 option. Every time I watch this video I see no down side to the "Selling a Covered Call." Unless you are the kind of person that thinks in terms, "IF ONLY I DID THIS." But that's emotional and not continues logical trading. I can't wait to start doing this with SABR and BAC. Happy Halloween.

I still don’t understand why you would buy your own call option back. Isn’t someone else supposed to buy your covered call option after you sell to open? Anyone have any better videos explaining that

Why not just buy apple stocks at current price and sell a covered call in the money to collect the extrinsic value difference per share?

Hey Joe! Watched a few of your videos thanks for the content! One question on the income generated through selling the covered call premiums - do you know if there’s any limit to offsetting that income using any tax loss harvesting by selling other stocks at a loss position? Are the covered call premiums subject to the 3k max, or it’s considered a short term capital gain? Any insight would be awesome thanks!

You are buying back your call for less money than you sold it for. This ensures you keep your shares as well as the difference in premium. Example: On May 12, you sell a call for $1 for a $100 premium. On May 16, you buy back the same call for $0.60 for a $60 premium. You would net $40 ($100-$60) and keep your shares no matter what.
