Thanks Jerry. Your classes and commentary here are really helping me.
I am a covered call (CC) writer. I was using individual stocks & ETF like XBI, BABA, NFLX, WMT, SQ, SODA.
But environment has changed so, I am going to switch to SPY CC. Reason (1) Easy to watch 1 instead of multiple, (2) two expiration per week (3) less dependent on individual stock news (4) Topping is a process and will probably rounded top. So, we would go near high but may or may not exceed.
So, Yesterday I bought 100 shares at 268 & 270 & wrote deep in the money SPY 265 & 267 CC. Traded those CC based on ES chart 5 min RSI, Tick & A/D (all I learned from you). 265 CC got called out and in last 5 min SPY fell below 267. So, I keep 267 CC. So, now I have SPY 100 shares at 266. I now will write Friday CC.
