Last week I had some written calls expire on 16th May on my BHP stock in my retirement account, I also had my written Tesla puts expire on the 17th May in my main trading account. So last week I was free to put some new trades on for $7k in premium. First, I wrote some new calls at $47.01 (again) against my BHP stock on the 20th May. 12 contracts at $1.12, July expiry, after brokerage is a sweet premium of $1307.33 or 2.32% return. I always have to go further out to get any decent premium on the au market. Second, I wrote some new Tesla puts at $175 on the 24th May. 5 contracts @ $7.65, June expiry, premium of $3821usd, or for me that's about $5700aud, and a return of 4.37%
Two expiries, so two new trades on!
