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.
