Why This Strategy, Why Now

  • RSI at 51 โ€” neutral-bullish
  • IV -30% vs avg โ€” premiums below average, less income
  • MACD bullish โ€” stock has upward momentum
  • ADX at 22 โ€” moderate trend
  • No squeeze โ€” no imminent breakout
  • MFI at 72 โ€” money flow confirms overbought

Key Risks

SPCX has bullish momentum (MACD). If a positive catalyst emerges (earnings beat, product launch), the stock could gap past your strike. Consider rolling the call up if SPCX approaches the strike before expiry.
