Options Update: November 2020

I write monthly Options Update articles to summarize options trades and keep track of DivGro's total options income. While my blog is mostly about dividend growth investing, I added options trading in 2016 to boost DivGro's income. 

When selling covered calls and put options, I collect the options income and redeploy it to buy dividend growth stocks. Doing so indirectly boosts DivGro's ability to generate dividend income. 

November's options income was disappointing as I failed to top $1,000 for the first time in six months. With only one month remaining, my 2020 goal of collecting at least $24,000 in options income is entirely out of reach. 

Recap

In November, I closed one option early and had one assignment and nine expirations. Additionally, I rolled forward an option and had ten income-generating trades:

Assigned Options

When the holder of an option exercises the option, it is said to be assigned.

I had one assignment in November:

#456a 2020-03-09 : -1 × BEN 20 Nov 2020 $22.50 P  $       455.33  ( $          -0.48 )

I sold three $22.50 put options on Franklin Resources, Inc (BEN) and rolled forward two of them to avoid assignment. This means I left one of those options open to an assignment, which occurred one day before expiration on 19 November.

I'm very happy with the outcome, despite having paid $22.50 per share when the going price was $20.85 per share. When accounting for the options premium I received, my effective cost basis was only $17.96 per share! 

For additional context, on Friday, BEN's closing price was $23.71 per share!

Expired Options

In November, the following option expired:

#549	2020-10-21	:	-2	×	AFL 20 Nov 2020 $37.00 P	$       344.00	( $          -0.68 )
#537	2020-09-29	:	-1	×	LOW 20 Nov 2020 $170.00 C	$       575.00	( $          -0.67 )
#534	2020-09-29	:	-1	×	IBM 20 Nov 2020 $135.00 C	$       105.00	( $          -1.09 )
#533	2020-09-29	:	-2	×	GILD 20 Nov 2020 $70.00 C	$       154.00	( $          -0.88 )
#532	2020-09-29	:	-2	×	CSCO 20 Nov 2020 $42.00 C	$       162.00	( $          -2.48 )
#522	2020-09-21	:	-1	×	ORCL 20 Nov 2020 $55.00 P	$       118.00	( $          -0.79 )
#519	2020-08-27	:	-2	×	LLY 20 Nov 2020 $125.00 P	$       365.00	( $          -1.60 )
#516	2020-08-21	:	-2	×	XOM 20 Nov 2020 $35.00 P	$       218.00	( $          -0.90 )
#513	2020-08-21	:	-1	×	TXN 20 Nov 2020 $105.00 P	$       125.00	( $          -0.65 )

I already covered these expirations in an article, so I won't rehash details here.

In all, I secured options income totaling $2,516 with these expirations. Secured means I no longer have any obligations. For covered calls, my shares can no longer be called away, and, for put options, the margin set aside for collateral gets released.  

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.

#544

2020-10-19

:

-1

×

D 18 Dec 2020 $85.00 C

$       115.00

( $      -172.42 )

I closed one option in November, but not to secure options income prematurely. Instead, I closed this option because I decided to close my position in Dominion Energy (D) because the company decreased its dividend.

Doing so produced a net loss of $57.

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.

As mentioned earlier, I rolled forward two BEN options to avoid assignment:

#551	2020-11-19	:	-2	×	BEN 18 Dec 2020 $20.00 P	$         91.00	( $          -0.27 )
#456b	2020-03-09	:	-2	×	BEN 20 Nov 2020 $22.50 P	$       910.67	( $      -352.23 )	→ #551

On 19 November, BEN traded below $21 per share, some 7% below the $22.50 put options I'd sold earlier. To avoid assignment, I decided to roll forward two of these options to the 18 December expiration date, simultaneously lowering the strike price to $20. While trade cost about $353 to execute, I collected $91 for selling the December puts and secured about $557 of options income by buying back the November puts.  

Covered Calls

Selling covered calls is a way to collect extra income on stocks you already own.

I sold the following covered calls in November:

#558	2020-11-30	:	-1	×	LOW 15 Jan 2021 $170.00 C	$       120.00	( $          -0.79 )
#556	2020-11-30	:	-1	×	IBM 18 Mar 2021 $140.00 C	$       155.00	( $          -1.09 )
#555	2020-11-30	:	-2	×	GILD 19 Feb 2021 $70.00 C	$       114.00	( $          -0.87 )
#553	2020-11-30	:	-2	×	CSCO 19 Mar 2021 $45.00 C	$       270.00	( $          -0.64 )

#553 : 2020-11-30: Sold to Open 2 Contracts of Option CSCO Mar 19 2021 45.00 C

If the options are exercised, I'll sell 200 shares of CSCO at a reduced cost basis of $39.77 per share, for capital gains of 13.16%.

For covered calls, I think an achievable goal is to earn double the dividend yield. Two of these covered call trades achieve this goal, and two do not.

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!

For selling puts, I like to see a dividend boost factor of 5.00 or more unless I can buy shares at a discount of at least 10%. All but one of these put trades measure up to that criterium!

Options Income Tally

Here is a running tally of the total amount received from options trades and the options premiums secured due to options that expired or are closed. Secured means I no longer have related obligations and "own" the corresponding options income free and clear.

Seven covered calls and one put expiring in January are in the money, while four covered calls and one put are out of the money with a small margin of safety. While I have a bit more time, there are many more in the money options that I would need to deal with before their Janauray expiration. 

Concluding Remarks

November 2020

	Total Options Income		Secured Options Income
End of Month:	$ 87,921		$ 55,838
Previous Month:	$ 86,950		$ 52,722
This Month:	$    971		$  3,116

My year-to-date options income is $15,009, about 62.5% of my goal to collect $24,000 in options income in 2020. This is one goal that I won't achieve in 2020!
