Why This Strategy, Why Now

  • RSI at 60 โ€” neutral-bullish
  • IV -13% vs avg โ€” premiums near average, acceptable
  • MACD bullish โ€” stock has upward momentum
  • ADX at 16 โ€” range-bound, perfect for selling calls
  • No squeeze โ€” no imminent breakout

Key Risks

CRDO 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 CRDO approaches the strike before expiry.
