Why This Strategy, Why Now

- IV -58% vs avg — premiums below average, less income
- MACD bullish — stock has upward momentum
- ADX at 15 — range-bound, perfect for selling calls
- No squeeze — no imminent breakout
Key Risks
ACIW has bullish momentum (MACD). If a positive catalyst emerges (earnings beat, product launch), the stock could gap past your strike. Consider rolling the call up if ACIW approaches the strike before expiry.
