Transcript

This is a step by step tutorial on how to do a covered call. It's a beginner friendly option strategy that generates extra income on stocks that you already own. Sounds good, right? Let's get into it. Step number one, own 100 shares of any company. And this is a must, otherwise you can't do it. For this example, I'm gonna be using Tesla because I own 100 shares. Step two, click trade options. Step number three, hit sell call and find expiration date between one to four weeks out. That's my personal preference. For this example, we're gonna use the $500 strike price. Currently, Tesla is trading at $458 and we're betting that it will not hit $500 by this date. So it needs to increase about 10.5, 10 and a half percent by November 7th in order to reach that $500. And in doing so, we will get compensated $600 to enter into this trade. So if Tesla stays below $500 by November 7th, I keep this whole $600 and we walk away as if nothing happens. Now if Tesla hits $500 or above by November 7th, I'm gonna be forced to sell 100 shares of Tesla at $500 per share, but I still keep this $600 regardless. And I would do this week after week after week, collecting $111, $236, $163 and hundreds of dollars every single week. This is one of the many option strategies that I personally use.
