Hi fellow investors,

On March 09, 2022, I bought 100 shares of NYSE: GOLD stock paying $24.07 per share and simultaneously sold 1 covered call on them with a strike price of $24 and expiry this Friday. Credit received $54 (before commissions)

NYSE:GOLD - Barrick Gold Corporation is a mining company that produces gold and copper with 16 operating sites in 13 countries. It is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I have been trading covered calls with Barrick Gold with quite a huge success in the past. Today the price might seem a bit high and probably a pullback is awaited if some good news comes from Ukraine, but I’m ready to keep this stock for a few more weeks or months in my portfolio while selling covered calls on it.

here is the trade setup:

  • BOT 100 GOLD Stock 24.07 USD

  • SLD 1 GOLD MAR 11 '22 24 Call Option 0.54 USD

I bought 100 shares at $24.07 apiece, in total paying $2,407, and sold 1 covered call with this Friday’s expiry, for what I received a premium of $54 (before commissions)

What happens next?

On the expiry date, March 11, 2022, NYSE: GOLD is trading under $24 per share -  options expire worthlessly and I keep premium - if GOLD trades above $24 on the expiry date, my 100 shares will get called away and I realize my max profit $44.6 ($51.6+$7) or potential 1.85% income yield in 2 days.

Break-even price: $24.07-0.51= $23.56

If the stock price will fall under $24 I will happily roll this call into next week

Trade safe!
