Serious question - what are some of y'all doing for some extra cheddar on the side. Fortunately, construction is still chugging along in my city so I still have some $ coming in, but who knows for how long. Any feedback is appreciated.

I trade stocks. My job is letting me work from home and I'm doing it as much as I can. Kind of pissed I have to go in Monday and Tuesday, because then I can't watch the market like I should be doing.

I sell covered calls. With volatility high as giraffe pussy you can make 4.3%+ every week selling a covered call a week. Make $125 a week ($500 a month) on a $2.9k investment because the IV makes premiums super high. I set stop loss to be the purchase price of shares less the option premium so if the price goes south I lose 0. After the first week if the stock stayed flat or failed to increase 21%, I now have realized that 4.3% premium. I then sell more calls for another 4.3% and adjust my stop loss accordingly depending on my risk tolerance. After n weeks of doing this and collecting premiums, you can adjust your stop loss such that if the asset tanks you realize 3/n, 5/n, 7/n etc. premiums.

Basically that dude sells options contracts to other people at a high mark up. Becuase of the crab stock market we're in right now this is probably the smartest thing you could do involving options, or else you will get screwed by theta decay. I don't mean to beat you other the head with terms but if you start messing around in the stock market especially with options you are going to need to google these terms or you will get fucked hard out of your money until there's nothing left.

Volatility make option premium high
Good for sellers bad for buyers
Covered calls mean you sell a call option while holding the underlying asset
I.e. for every 100 shares you buy, you can sell 1 call and be covered

In the image I posted I purchased 500 shares for $5.75
I then sold 5 calls with a $7 strike price that expire this Friday for $25 each
My stop loss is set at $5.50 so I sell the underlying and lose nothing because my $125 premium extends me an extra $0.25 in downside protection for each share.

I then have to watch and make sure the price doesn't go back towards $7 because my calls are now naked. If there is an upward trend at a certain point I will buy back the 5 contracts I sold to minimize losses.

Now there are 3 things that can happen this next week:
1) the price of the asset goes up past $7 and I get exercised. My gains are capped at ($7-$5.75 + $0.25)*500 = $750 (which is 21% on my investment in one week)

2) the price of the asset goes up but not over $7, the options I sold expire worthless and I keep the stock and the $125 in premiums

3) the price of the asset goes down and my stop loss triggers closing my my stock position. I will continue to hold the naked options if the drop is significant enough as the chance of me getting assigned is low. If the price rises towards a level I am not comfortable with after having sold all my stock, I will purchase the contracts I sold for a small loss

What is a strike price? I don't understand how you were able to sell them for $25, but thanks for explaining. This is great.

If you don't even understand what an option is then there is zero chance you will be able to understand what I'm doing and what's smart about it. You're questions are fundamental

I suggest browsing investopedia's sections on options. Google "covered calls investopedia" and read the article and watch the video if you really want to learn.

Read this and watch the videos for background on options in general:
https://www.investopedia.com/options-basics-tutorial-4583012

Read and watch the videos here for covered calls specifically:
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/coveredcall.asp

I suggest reading the sticky at the start of any /smg/ thread and browsing Investopedia for terms that you are unfamiliar with.

Oh come the fuck on why is everyone on here like this?? As soon as someone expresses an actual curiosity in what you're doing, you act like it's a fucking burden to provide your own personal input on a public forum devoted to the topic. I came here because I specifically do not want to spend time reading textbook definitions and examples from google search results. The only people actually gaming the market and making some money aren't necessarily playing by the basic rules either, which is why it's valuable to have personal experiences explained.

But fuck me for being curious right? Bunch of assholes
