Let’s break this down in simple terms so you can clearly see how this works. 🧠 The Setup (What We Did) - Stock: Coca-Cola (KO) - We own: 300 shares - Sold: 3 × $80 Calls - Expiration: Apr 17, 2026 - Premium collected: $267.99 👉 Think of this as collecting 3 deposits upfront 📊 Where We Are Now - Days left: 3 - Current option value: $2.00 per contract - Total to close: $6.00 - Profit: +$261.99 - Return: ~97% max profit 💡 What This Means We sold 3 contracts and collected $267.99 total Now those same contracts are only worth $6 combined 👉 That means: - The buyer lost almost all the value - We’ve already captured almost the full profit 🔑 Why We Close Early Even with a few days left… We don’t wait around for the last few dollars. We close because: - ✅ 97% of profit is already captured - ✅ Avoid last-minute volatility - ✅ Lock in gains - ✅ Free up capital for the next trade 💰 The Reality - Collected: $267.99 - Cost to close: $6.00 👉 Net Profit: ~$261.99 🎯 The Big Lesson This is the real edge: Don’t chase the last few dollarsTake the win and move on
