On February 11, 2022, I rolled forward 1 covered call on UWMC stock, a position I originally established at the start of October 2021 by investing $682, see: Established New Covered Call on UWMC; Potential Income return 3.9% in 7 days

United Wholesale Mortgage (NYSE: UWMC) is the wholesale mortgage lender

We are significantly under the water with UWMC stock this year

here is the trade setup:

• BOT 1 UWMC Feb11'22 4.5 CALL 0.05 USD

• SLD 1 UWMC Feb18'22 4.5 CALL 0.19 USD

here I bought back today’s expiry 4.5 call and sold new, next Friday’s (February 18, 2022) expiry call option. In total receiving $14 (before commissions)

What happens next?

On the expiry date, February 18, 2022, UWMC is trading under $4.5 per share -  options expire worthlessly and I keep premium - if UWMC trades above $4.5 on the expiry date, my 100 shares will get called away and I realize a loss of $121.4 or potential income loss of -17.8% in 136 days.

Break-even price: $6.82-$1.03= $5.79

Let’s see will I be able to recover this trade.
