I only had 1 <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?page_id=1218\">Grasshopper<\/a><\/span> trade come to an end. I say Grasshopper trade because it was a Covered Call involving 100 shares of stock and the sale of a 1 contract Call. I was assigned on the Covered Call with a $600 profit on the stock sale and a $200 premium for a total gain of $800.<\/p>\n<p>I bought 100 shares of RH on 7\/18\/18 for $133 per shares. The total investment was 13,300. This was the 4th week in a row where I sold a 1 contract, $139 Call. Each week I brought in a premium of $200. The 1st week it was a little less because it was a 2 day Call. A $200 premium on a $133 stock is a 1.5% return. All of these Calls were 1 week Calls. So, for the last 4 weeks I received 1.5% return for the 1 week investment. That&#8217;s 6% for the 4 week investment. The last week, which ended this past Friday, I was finally assigned and made an additional $600 on the stock sale. If we average out my premiums at $200 a week for 4 weeks, plus $600 on the stock sale, That&#8217;s a total profit of $1400 on a $13,300 investment which lasted 4 weeks. That&#8217;s a 10.5% return for a 4 week investment. This was the perfect Grasshopper trade. Any one of the readers could have done these trades. A $13,300 investment and 4 weeks later I have $14,700. That&#8217;s fantastic! Grasshopper, or no Grasshopper, I&#8217;m happy with this result.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>RH Covered Call<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">7\/18\/18 \u2013 Buy 100 Shares RH @$133.00<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">8\/10\/18 \u2013 Assigned 100 Shares RH @ $139.00<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Profit +$600<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">8\/6\/18 \u2013 Sell to Open 1 RH $139.00 8\/10\/18 C @ $2.00 \u00a0(+$200)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">8\/10\/18 \u2013 Expired 1 RH $139.00 8\/10\/18 C<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Profit +$200<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Total Weekly Gain +$800<\/h4>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it!!!!
