Why This Strategy, Why Now
- RSI at 41
- IV -24% vs avg โ premiums below average, less income
- MACD bearish โ stock may keep falling (risk)
- ADX at 18 โ range-bound, perfect for selling calls
- No squeeze โ no imminent breakout
Key Risks
The main risk is missing upside if CRWD rallies sharply. The premium received ($X per share) provides a buffer, but gains above the strike are forfeited.
