Shockwave Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 1 hour ago, Heimdallr said: I made my first ever option trade. Sold 5 SNDL covered call options 5Feb19 (3d) $2.50 strike No idea how this works but we'll see what happens! It means you sold your obligation to someone to sell your 500 shares of SNDL at $2.50 on 2/19 if the owner of those calls chooses to exercise them. He won't if the shares are below $2.50. If that happens you keep all the premium you collected for the calls you sold, plus you keep the shares. If it's over 2.50 and he exercises the shares will be pulled away, you'll be credited $2.50 for each share and you keep all the premium for the calls you sold. The downside is.. if SNDL pops to $7.00 by Friday...you're only entitled to the capital gain up to 2.50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that is why I wanted to get into covered calls, it seems like it is a good way to make money with very little risk. Just trying it out on SNDL because it is cheap.

Just trying it out on SNDL because it is cheap. Once you get comfortable with selling calls. Next step is selling puts to open a position and acquire shares. Then sell calls to exit the position aka The Wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ITS LOSING ITS MIND RIGHT NOW!!!! There's no way it can jump much more at the announcement I would think. What I find so stupid about this is that the price of the company has yet to be set, so it could end up being ridiculously overvalued as the market cap is set by those involved in the deal, and based off the price at $10. Technically no SPAC, no matter the company, is worth more than another until you know the valuation. An oil company with $1 million in revenue is worth the same (stock price wise) as a EV company with $1 billion in revenue, if the valuation is right.

I'm learning to just take profits and leave. I got burnt WAYY too much trying to go to the Moon. And the few companies where I've held shares or Option during Merges. I always LOST money. I also bought some shares in case it rockets again. Edited February 16, 2021 by GHARMON9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm still learning to do the same as well, my total value always seems to go up a bunch and then lose like half the gains, and repeat. It's so tough for me because it is more painful to watch a stock that you sold out of continue to go up then to watch a stock you own give up gains. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can get your original investment out, and leave the profits to still have a nice position that's the way to go if you like a company long term 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
