These trades come as the #35 and #36 in the month of September, according to my trading plan for this month, the premium generated from this trade makes me about 4.72% of my $1,000 monthly goal. While in total I have reached already 99.1% so far. Awesome
Here is the trade setup:
SLD 1 KO OCT 29 '21 54 Put Option 0.94 USD
BOT 1 KO OCT 29 '21 52 Put Option 0.42 USD
For this credit spread, I got a credit of 47.2 USD (after commissions) or a 0.87% potential income return in 36 days, if options expire worthlessly
What happens next?
On the expiry date, October 29, 2021, KO is trading above $54 per share - options expire worthlessly and I keep premium - if KO trades under $54 on the expiry date, I will get assigned 100 shares and will have to buy them for $5,400
But as I already have collected a premium of $0.47 per share, my break-even price for this trade then will be $54-$0.47 = $53.53
In case of assignment, I will turn this trade into a wheel strategy and will start selling covered calls
