From there, I\u2019ll shift into my \u201cWheel Strategy\u201d and start selling Calls against those shares.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 data-start=\"1335\" data-end=\"1349\"><strong data-start=\"1335\" data-end=\"1349\">\u2705 Summary:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1537\" data-end=\"1708\">This trade reinforces The Grasshopper Project\u2019s core strategy: steady income, disciplined entries, and controlled risk.
