Why This Strategy, Why Now

  • RSI at 30 โ€” oversold, not ideal for selling calls
  • IV -38% vs avg โ€” premiums below average, less income
  • MACD bearish โ€” stock may keep falling (risk)
  • ADX at 27 โ€” moderate trend
  • TTM Squeeze ON โ€” breakout imminent, risky for capped strategies

Key Risks

ADX at 27 indicates a moderately strong trend. In trending markets, covered calls cap your upside too early. Use a higher strike to leave more room.
TTM Squeeze is ON โ€” a volatility breakout may be imminent. If the breakout is to the upside, your short call will be tested quickly.
