I wrote an OTM covered call and the stock price rose to the strike price.
I wrote an OTM covered call and the stock price rose to the strike price.
The option has not yet been executed and I am wondering what a good method would be to preserve the gain in case the stock price drops again?
The option now has quite a bit of time value so closing that position will eat away at half of the stock gains.
Is the best choice to just wait and hope the stock price doesn’t fall?
