242 • The Intelligent Option Investor
|
||||
We accepted
|
||||
downside
|
||||
exposure when
|
||||
we sold this
|
||||
put, so have no
|
||||
exposure to the
|
||||
upside here.
|
||||
RED
|
||||
The top of the “Covered call” diagram is grayed out because we have
|
||||
sold away the upside exposure to the stock by selling the call option, and
|
||||
we are left only with the acceptance of the stock’s downside exposure. The
|
||||
pictures are slightly different, but the economic impact is the same.
|
||||
The other difference you will notice is that after the option expires, in the
|
||||
case of the covered call, we have represented the graphic as though there is some
|
||||
residual exposure. This is represented in this way because if the option expires
|
||||
ITM, you will have to deliver your stock to the counterparty who bought your
|
||||
call options. As such, your future exposure to the stock is contingent on another
|
||||
investor’s actions and the price movement of the stock. This is an important point
|
||||
to keep in mind, and I will discuss it more in the “Common Pitfalls” section.
|
||||
Execution
|
||||
Because this strategy is identical from a risk-reward perspective to short
|
||||
puts, the execution details should be the same as well. Indeed, covered
|
||||
calls should—like short puts—be executed ATM to get the most time value
|
||||
possible and preferably should be done on a stock that has had a recent fall
|
||||
and whose implied volatility has spiked. However, these theoretical points
