Welcome to another options update article!I write monthly options update articles to summarize options trades and to keep track of my options income. Each update also serves as a status report on open options and the obligations I potentially have.
The stock market took a bit of a nosedive in May on trade war concerns and volatility is up, so selling options is a little more lucrative (albeit riskier).
After April's poor performance, I'm happy to report that May's trades have regained some ground with regards to my 2019 options income goal. While I'm not back on pace yet, things certainly look better!
Recap
Through April 2019, I collected options income totaling $4,243 in 2019 at an average of about $1,061 per month. This was well short of my monthly target average of $1,750.
Below is a snapshot of May's trades, which included one assignment, one expiration, two transactions in which I closed options before expiration, and a few in which I rolled forward options. I also sold several put options and a couple of covered calls in May.

Assigned Options
When the holder of an option exercises the option, it is said to be assigned.
| #261 | 2018-12-06 | : | -1 | × | ES 19 Jul 2019 $70.00 C | $ 270.00 | ( $ -0.34 ) |
My ES shares were called away due to an early assignment of the July $70 covered call I'd sold in December 2018 for $240. The option holder exercised the option on 21 May, one day before ES would have trade ex-dividend. On 21 May, ES shares closed at $73.21 per share.
From the new owner's perspective, the trade was favorable. The option cost $2.40 per share, while the trade created an unrealized gain of $3.21 per share and it secured the upcoming dividend of $0.535 per share. The new owner's net (unrealized) gain is $134.50.
From my perspective, my investment in ES was quite successful! Total gains including dividend and options income are $3,150 or 66% on my original investment (which is 20% annualized).
ES is trading at a premium to fair value and I'm happy to wait until I can re-open a position at a more favorable level:
Source: Simply Safe DividendsWhen selling covered calls, you have to be prepared to "let go" of shares at any time. In my view, that risk is worth it! Since June 2016, I've collected about $50,000 in options income.
Expired Options
In April, the following option expired:
| #327 | 2019-03-25 | : | -1 | × | VLO 17 May 2019 $80.00 P | $ 224.00 | ( $ -0.79 ) |
On 17 May, Valero Energy (VLO) closed at $83.71 per share, well above the $80 strike price of the May put I'd sold. So the put expired and I no longer have the obligation to buy 100 VLO shares.
I secured options income totaling $223 with this trade.
Closed Options
When an out of the money option goes further out of the money, you can close the option early and secure most of the options income.
I closed the following options early:
On 15 May, Intel (INTC) traded near $45 per share. The $55 calls I'd sold were deep out of the money and I decided to buy back the call. Closing the option early secured most of the available options income and I netted about $761.
Also on 15 May, Ross Stores (ROST) traded around $94 per share, well below the $100 strike price of the call I'd sold. Buying back the call netted about $74 (or more than 87% of the available options income).
I closed the following options early:
| #275 | 2018-12-06 | : | -1 | × | ROST 17 May 2019 $100.00 C | $ 85.00 | ( $ -11.18 ) | |||
| #312 | 2019-02-22 | : | -2 | × | INTC 18 Oct 2019 $55.00 C | $ 670.00 | ( $ -98.14 ) |
On 15 May, Intel (INTC) traded near $45 per share. The $55 calls I'd sold were deep out of the money and I decided to buy back the call. Closing the option early secured most of the available options income and I netted about $761.
Also on 15 May, Ross Stores (ROST) traded around $94 per share, well below the $100 strike price of the call I'd sold. Buying back the call netted about $74 (or more than 87% of the available options income).
Rolled Options
Rolling forward options means buying back an option and selling another option with a later expiration date. You can do this to avoid options assignment for in the money options, or to collect more options income for out of the money options.
I rolled forward the following options this month:
| #339 | 2019-05-15 | : | -1 | × | AAPL 18 Jun 2021 $205.00 C | $ 2,323.00 | ( $ -0.69 ) | |||
| #304 | 2019-02-07 | : | -1 | × | AAPL 17 Jan 2020 $180.00 C | $ 1,380.00 | ( $ -2,246.75 ) | → #339 | ||
| #344 | 2019-05-15 | : | -1 | × | TIF 16 Aug 2019 $90.00 P | $ 302.00 | ( $ -0.65 ) | |||
| #326 | 2019-03-25 | : | -1 | × | TIF 17 May 2019 $100.00 P | $ 220.00 | ( $ -211.48 ) | → #344 | ||
| #352 | 2019-05-24 | : | -3 | × | SKT 17 Jan 2020 $20.00 C | $ 188.00 | ( $ -3.30 ) | |||
| #318 | 2019-02-22 | : | -3 | × | SKT 17 Jan 2020 $25.00 C | $ 195.00 | ( $ -39.41 ) | → #352 | ||
| #353 | 2019-05-28 | : | -2 | × | CMCSA 17 Jan 2020 $45.00 C | $ 396.00 | ( $ -2.58 ) | |||
| #253 | 2018-11-01 | : | -2 | × | CMCSA 21 Jun 2019 $42.50 C | $ 320.00 | ( $ -209.85 ) | → #353 |
On 15 May, Apple (AAPL) closed above $190 per share, meaning the January 2020, $180 covered calls I'd sold were deep in the money. To protect my AAPL shares, I decided to roll forward the options to June 2021, simultaneously increasing the strike price to $205. The trade cost me $878 in options income, but I collected $2,323 for selling the Jun 2021, $205 covered call.
Tiffany (TIF) closed above $98 on 15 May, so the $100, May 2019, puts I'd sold on TIF were in of the money. I decided to roll forward the options to August 2019 and simultaneously to lower the strike price to $90. Doing so cost me about $9 in options income but I collected another $302 for selling the August 2019, $90 puts.
On 24 May, Tanger Factory Outlet Centers (SKT) traded just above $18 per share, well below the $25 strike price of the January 2020 covered calls I'd sold. I decided to lower the strike price of these options to $20 with the same expiration date. This secured about $156 in options income and I collected another $188 for selling the $20 calls.
With Comcast (CMCSA) trading around $42 on 28 May, the Jun 2019, $42.50 covered calls I'd sold on CMCSA were in of the money. I decided to roll forward the options to January 2020 and simultaneously to increase the strike price to $45. Doing so secured about $110 in options income and I collected another $396 for selling the January 2020, $45 calls.
In all, these trades netted $3,173 in options income.
Covered Calls
Selling covered calls is a way to collect extra income on stocks you already own.
I sold the following covered call in May:
#340 : 2019-05-15: Sold to Open 1 Contract of Option DIS Jul 19 2019 140.00 C
I own 100 shares of Walt Disney (DIS) at a cost basis of $99.20 per share. I'm willing to sell these shares for $140.00 on or before 19 July:
This covered call yields 2.53%, or 14.23% on an annualized basis. The yield on cost of my DIS position is 1.77%, so I'm boosting dividend income by a factor of 8.02. If the option is exercised, I'll sell 100 shares of DIS at a reduced cost basis of $96.67 per share, for capital gains of 44.82%.
#351 : 2019-05-22: Sold to Open 2 Contracts of Option SKT Jan 17 2020 20.00 C
I own 200 shares of Tanger Factory Outlet Centers (SKT) at a cost basis of $17.84 per share. I'm willing to sell these shares for $20.00 on or before 17 January:
This covered call yields 3.09%, or 4.71% on an annualized basis. The yield on cost of my SKT position is 7.96%, so I'm boosting dividend income by a factor of 0.59. If the options are exercised, I'll sell 200 shares of SKT at a reduced cost basis of $17.27 per share, for capital gains of 15.79%.
For covered calls, I think an achievable goal is to earn double the dividend yield. While the DIS covered call trade easily meets this goal, the SKT covered call trade does not. Doubling SKT's 7.96% yield would be difficult!
I sold the following covered call in May:
| #340 | 2019-05-15 | : | -1 | × | DIS 19 Jul 2019 $140.00 C | $ 242.00 | ( $ -0.80 ) | |||

For covered calls, I think an achievable goal is to earn double the dividend yield. While the DIS covered call trade easily meets this goal, the SKT covered call trade does not. Doubling SKT's 7.96% yield would be difficult!
New Put Contracts
Selling put options allows me to set the price I'm willing to pay for a stock I want to buy. In effect, I get paid while waiting for the share price to drop!

Options Expiring Soon
Below I'm listing options expiring in the next two months. On expiration day, in the money options will result in options assignment, which I'd like to avoid in some cases, if possible.

Two options are in the money, one is at the money, and several are out of the money with small margins of safety, so I'll have to monitor these carefully as the options expiration dates approach.

After collecting $2,879 in options income in May, my year to date total is $7,122. This averages just more than $1,424 per month, which is still short of the desired monthly average of $1,750.
While DivGro's focus will continue to be dividend growth investing, options trading certainly is contributing positively to my portfolio's performance.
In 36 months of options trading, I've collected options income totaling $49,914. Over the same period, my dividend income totals $53,528. So about 48% of DivGro's total income over this period comes from options trading!
The exciting thing about collecting options income is that I immediately can deploy that income to buy more dividend growth stocks and so boost DivGro's ability to generate dividend income.

I'm appreciate your writing skill. Please keep on working hard. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Clipping -- an I appreciate your comment! Please do so again in future!
DeleteGogogogogogogo! I'm doing more spreads and less covered calls these days to better define my downside risk. It is working out pretty well. Winter is coming to the markets and I want to weather the storm intact.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment -- spreads are good for exactly that reason. And, yes, winter is coming and we need to be prepared for that!
