QQQ Simple uncovered Call Option Example
Обновлено
Here QQQ is shown on a 15-minute 
QQQ chart. I have set up and executed a call option on QQQ.
This is a recap.
The first thing is to plan for the entry area. To do this I set a fixed range for the
volume profile for a couple of days before the trade. Since the trade was on Friday, December
1st, the volume profile began on Wednesday the 29th of November. While the volume profile
may seem complex to look at, I only paid attention to three values- the POC line representing
the price value of the highest amount of trades ( black line) the lower value of the high volume
area ( green line) and the highest value of the high volume area ( red line). The thesis is that
if a trade is taken at the green line with other confirmatory indications such as the fast hull
moving average reversing from a downtrend and the RSI testing the oversold area, that bullish
momentum will push the price to the POC line and perhaps higher if selling pressure from bear
trades do not grow to meet that challenge. The target is the upper line of the boundary of
the volume area while the strike price is the value closest to the POC line.
In this example, the strike price was 390 and the trade was for 10 call options for $ 0.49 each
for a total trade cost of $490. Although the calls expire on Monday December 4th, the trade
was closed when stock price hit the target. The total trade duration was about 2 hours and 10
minutes. The close had an option price of $1.86 yielding $1860 from the inital $490 placed
in the trade. The net profit of $ 1370 represents about $ 450 per hour for the time expended.
The risk with a 20% stop loss is about $100 which is 1% of a $10,000 account.
This is a very simple strategy that can be rinsed and repeated. It can be done with same day
approach or a longer expiration like 5-10 days depending on a trader's appetite for reward
relative to risk, time decay and uncertainties in the market relative to time.
