BORING CSP's I'll be looking to sell this week (3/9 - 3/13)

I’m back for another weekly list of **BORING CSPs** I’ll be watching closely and likely selling cash-secured PUTs on. I’ll also be actively selling and managing weekly or bi-weekly CCs where assignments or rolls make sense. This series follows the same rules-based framework I’ve been running and publicly logging weekly since Spring 2025, using real capital and real risk. I appreciate everyone who’s been following along! Despite all of the chaos, I found a few setups worth taking. **HAL** was the standout. With oil running, I opened three HAL $33 CSP's on Wednesday. Thursday I added two **FCX** $58 CSPs. Both are commodity-sensitive names that tend to hold up during these regimes. On the covered call side, I stayed busy. Closed the **NVDA** $192.5 CC carryover from last week on Tuesday at $0.15, capturing about 77% of the $0.64 premium. Opened a new NVDA $192.5 CC on Wednesday and flipped it Thursday at $0.06 for a quick 72% of max-profit. Then put on **QCOM** $150 CCs in both accounts and an **SMCI** $40 CC on Thursday. All three share positions are generating income now. **GOOG** and **DG** are still open as carryovers from previous weeks. Between the new CSPs and covered calls, I collected $556 in premiums on $122k deployed (0.45% ROC). Not a standout week for ROC, but capital is working. Oil at $91 with the Strait still closed is going to keep things volatile heading into next week. Stay safe out there! --- ## Last Week's Totals - **Return on Capital:** 0.45% - **Annualized Yield:** 26.56% - **Premiums Collected:** $555.52 - **Capital Used:** $122,341 --- ### Last Week's Trades (3/2 - 3/6) *Mobile users: swipe left on the table* | Type | Open | Exp | Close | Ticker | Strike | Qty | Fill | Exit | Fee | Cap | P/L $ | ROC | |-----|------|-----|-------|--------|--------|-----|------|------|-----|-----|-------|-----| | CSP | 3/4 | 3/20 | — | **HAL** | 33 | 3 | 0.75 | 0.00 | 1.35 | 9.9k | 223.65 | 2.26% | | CC | 3/4 | 3/6 | 3/5 | **NVDA** | 192.5 | 1 | 0.21 | 0.06 | 0.69 | 19.15k | 14.31 | 0.07% | | CSP | 3/5 | 4/17 | — | **FCX** | 58 | 2 | 1.30 | 0.00 | 1.40 | 11.6k | 258.60 | 2.23% | | CC | 3/5 | 3/20 | — | **QCOM** | 150 | 1 | 0.18 | 0.00 | 0.70 | 16.75k | 17.30 | 0.10% | | CC | 3/5 | 3/20 | — | **QCOM** | 150 | 1 | 0.18 | 0.00 | 0.67 | 16k | 17.33 | 0.11% | | CC | 3/5 | 3/20 | — | **SMCI** | 40 | 1 | 0.25 | 0.00 | 0.67 | 4.94k | 24.33 | 0.49% | Every position is fully cash-secured (no margin, no leverage). When I have the bandwidth to manage risk actively, I’ll favor shorter-dated CSPs; otherwise I stick to 30–45 DTE setups that provide flexibility if volatility persists. If nothing meets my criteria, I simply don’t trade. The edge is in restraint. --- ### BORING CSP's (3/9 - 3/13) *Mobile users: swipe left on the table to see additional metrics including Annualized Yield, Return on Capital, Probability of Profit, spread %, and more.* | Ticker | Company | Sector | Expiry | Strike | Δ | Premium | IV | Return | AY | PoP | Spread | Cushion | RSI | ADX | Collat | |--------|---------|--------|--------|--------|-------|---------|-----|--------|-----|-----|--------|---------|-----|-----|--------| | RTX | RTX Corporation | Industrials | 4/2 | $200 | -0.29 | $3.70 | 39 | 1.85% | 27% | 74% | 10% | 5% | 60 | 22 | $20k | | BMY | Bristol-Myers Squibb | Healthcare | 4/2 | $57 | -0.25 | $0.79 | 33 | 1.39% | 20% | 77% | 12% | 5% | 53 | 35 | $5.7k | | NEE | NextEra Energy | Utilities | 3/13 | $89 | -0.27 | $0.63 | 31 | 0.71% | 52% | 78% | 11% | 2% | 51 | 32 | $8.9k | | HAL | Halliburton | Energy | 4/2 | $32 | -0.28 | $0.72 | 48 | 2.25% | 33% | 74% | 11% | 6% | 48 | 14 | $3.2k | --- Trade log PDF will be in comments
