Also on Monday I sold a 10 contract Call against these shares. On Tuesday I was able to Buy to Close this option position and keep over half the premium I collected (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?p=3697\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">see Buy to Close RH<\/span><\/a>). The premium was $1250. Today the market is doing great on optimism of an approved tax plan. My RH stock, which has no option attached to it, is up above $82.60. I just sold a Call to get started on next week&#8217;s profit. I sold 10 contracts of the RH 10\/27\/17 $85 Call for a premium of 1.25. This is a total premium of $1250 on a stock that is $2.50 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?page_id=304\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Out-of-the-Money<\/span><\/a>, and there&#8217;s only one week to expiration. As long as RH doesn&#8217;t tank, I love this deal. The premium is 1.5% <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?page_id=379\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Rate of Return<\/span><\/a> on investment, plus if I get assigned I&#8217;ll make $4 on the stock ($4000). If I do get assigned the total return will be $5250. That&#8217;s fantastic! I&#8217;d love to get assigned and move on! This trade is a covered Call on previously owned stock so it&#8217;s a <strong>Risk Factor 1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Sell to Open 10 RH 10\/27\/17 $85.00 C @ $1.25 (+$1250)<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If this market keeps moving, a lot of people are gonna have a great year.
