Here’s the top covered calls from this morning that expire today under $25 stock from optiondash website. If a person does one trade a week and buys a conservative stock with a 1% premium on (selling) the call, one could theoretically make 52% a year. Imagine if you were writing 2% call premiums. The stocks with the higher call premiums can also be higher risk for a stock price drop in my own experience so don’t be greedy is my suggestion…doc ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/motleyfoolfree/original/3X/8/a/8a362ba9efadaf65b7baa4e8133020f53cd62854.png) ---

Personally I try to avoid segments like financials that are in trouble, earnings/announcements this week, lawsuit stocks so do your due diligence. I would go right to that Intercept Pharm and look it over carefully. RIOT is in this top list every week as is MARA (missing). Stone Co might be a good one. Nano X has a really good reward if it gets called out. WW is weight watchers and is usually in this list. CVNA has been here every week and I’ve lost some money on it when it climbs up to the top of its trading range like it is now. IMHO and do your research before doing any buy writes. Remember UPST from last week…doc ---

I looked some of these over and STNE might be a viable play based on my own opinion. The premium is a whopping 4% too…doc [StoneCo (Nasdaq:STNE) - Stock Price, News & Analysis - Simply Wall St](https://simplywall.st/stocks/us/diversified-financials/nasdaq-stne/stoneco) ---

SPCE has a 3% premium (expires tomorrow), the chart has been pretty stable the last 3 months (rising) yet it isn’t something I would buy just to own. I would consider holding it for a day or two at 3% premium, but STNE seems like a better play IMHO…doc ---

Friday close XELA dropped to $4.91 ICPY dropped to 13.56 BHC rose to 8.30 STNE dropped to 13.36 DLO rose to 14.11 CVNA dropped to 10.74 SPCE dropped to 4.36 WISH dropped to 7.90 PCT dropped to 6.60 ALT dropped to 4.49 You can see its challenging to pick the winners. Lower premiums might be the answer or a less volative market what with the default looming…doc edit: this is based on the prices 3 days ago from the screen I posted and then on Friday close ---

Running PureCycle option now. This is a little longer than my recent one week long options. A $7 put offering up .60c premium, so not bad for a month. It keeps me from having that money burning a hole in my pocket, it keeps me paying attention to PCT now that they have their first factory ready. Not sure I want to own long term yet, but can make a bit of money in the meantime. ---
