Why This Strategy, Why Now
- RSI at 48
- IV -28% vs avg — premiums below average, less income
- MACD bullish — stock has upward momentum
- ADX at 10 — range-bound, perfect for selling calls
- No squeeze — no imminent breakout
- MFI at 75 — money flow confirms overbought
Key Risks
APH 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 APH approaches the strike before expiry.
