Why This Strategy, Why Now
- RSI at 26 โ oversold, not ideal for selling calls
- IV -33% vs avg โ premiums below average, less income
- MACD bearish โ stock may keep falling (risk)
- ADX at 38 โ strong trend, stock may run past strike

Key Risks
ADX at 38 indicates a moderately strong trend. In trending markets, covered calls cap your upside too early. Use a higher strike to leave more room.
