But after looking long at the Candlestick Chart I see the stock staying below $36.50 this week. In addition to the Candlestick Chart the oscillators <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?page_id=2763\">RSI<\/a> <\/span>indicates an overbought situation.<\/p>\n<p>With the stock at $35.00 I was filled on my order. I sold 10 AMD 11\/15\/19 $36.50 Calls and received a premium of 50\u00a2 for $500.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sell to Open 10 AMD 11\/15\/19 $36.50 C @ 50\u00a2 (+$500)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the stock at $35 this is a <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?page_id=379\">Rate of Return<\/a><\/span> of 1.4%. With this Call expiring this Friday this trade fits into my \u201c<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?page_id=422\">1 Week\/1%<\/a><\/span>\u201d strategy. Remember it\u2019s not the amount of money you make, it\u2019s the amount you make on your investment, Rate of Return.<\/p>\n<p>As you might know Naked Calls are my favorite strategy. This is making money with NO investment. The Rate of Return I mentioned above is if I bought the stock with a Covered Call.<\/p>\n<p>A Naked Call does present a problem if the stock goes up so I placed an order to buy the stock at $36.45. If the stock goes up to $36.45 the stock will automatically be bought into my account to cover the Naked Call. A Naked Call gets a Risk Factor 5 but with my Buy-Stop Order in place this trade gets a <strong>Risk Factor 3<\/strong>. There\u2019s always a chance of the stock going up over night and my order will not get filled.<\/p>\n<p>I will be watching this position closely all week.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to welcome our new readers. If you have any questions send me an email.<\/p>\n<p>Successful trading,<\/p>\n<p>Steve<\/p>\n<p><em>The Options Coach<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I feel Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) will be pulling back so I just sold 10 Naked Calls.
