I bought the shares at $30.95 and sold the $31 Call. With that Buy-Write I received a premium of 60\u00a2. When the Expiration Date rolled around my Call expired but I was not assigned. I still own the shares.<\/p>\n<p>A few minutes ago, with the stock at $30.60 I sold another Call. This is also a 1 week option to expire this Friday. I sold with the same Strike Price of $31 but this time I received a premium of 52\u00a2. As usual I hope the stock goes up and I get assigned. This is a Covered Call on previously owned stock so this trade gets a <strong>Risk Factor 1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sell to Open 10 AMD 9\/27\/19 $31.00 C @ 52\u00a2 (+$520)<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Last week I also did a Buy-Write with Square and Dish Network. As with AMD I was not assigned. I\u2019m trying to get another Call sold on both of these holdings. DISH is up a little today but I need it to go up a little more. And Square is a different story. The stock is down about 85\u00a2 today and down $2.50 from where I bought. I\u2019m not too worried because I like the stock but I am a little upset it\u2019s not moving the way I thought it would.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll watch these 2 stocks closely to see what I can do to make money.
