Look under Week Ending 1\/15\/21.<\/p>\n<p>I just made another trade on each of these stocks for this week&#8217;s Grasshopper trades.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">NIO<\/p>\n<p>Last week I got a premium of $2. This week I only got 50\u00a2. There are 2 reasons why this week&#8217;s premium is much lower. #1, the stock dropped back on Friday. It&#8217;s bouncing back nicely today. And #2, this is a short week. I could have gone out to next week with the Expiration Date for a better premium, but I figured let me get through this short week with this premium and hopefully the stock continues up and I get a better premium next week.<\/p>\n<p>With my trading account I sold 10 $66 Calls. With this I went out to next week because in that account I spent more for the stock and I had to go with the $66 Strike Price. The $66 Call for this week was a very low premium.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sell to Open 1 NIO 1\/22\/21 $64.00 C @ 50\u00a2 (+$50)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This return is under 1$ but I made nice money last week and hope to get another nice return next week.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Workhorse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With my 1 contract WKHS Grasshopper trade I went out to 1\/29, next week.

This is a return of 4.2% for the 2 week trade.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sell to Open 1 WKHS 1\/29\/21 $25.50 C @ $1.05 (+$105)<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Palantir<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With Palantir I sold the 1 contract to expire this week.
