Then, in the shareholder phase, the investor is collecting dividends and keeps selling Covered Call Options until assigned again - which brings the investor back to the Cash Secured Put phase. The strategy can be optimised, when the investor avoids assignment by rolling the position. The investor would aim at yields that are above the long term market average - to compensate the additional work he needs to invest. This calculator was developed to support on this endeavor. **DISCLAIMER** The information shown in the app does not represent any investment or investment strategy recommendations for trading in securities, but serves solely for personal information or entertainment and is in no way to be understood as an invitation to trade in securities.
