Opening (IRA): QQQ August 30th 405 Monied Covered Call

... for a 401.49 debit.
Comments: As with my IWM monied covered call, re-upping in QQQ in 45 days' duration with the short call at about the same delta it was in the setup I just took off with the basic goal being to milk a little bit more out of August without taking on additional risk. Here, re-upping at about the same short call delta actually results in a lower buying power effect and a lower break even.
Similar to the IWM setup, however, the metrics aren't sexy here as a standalone trade:
Buying Power Effect/Break Even: 401.49
Max Profit: 3.51
ROC at Max: .875%
50% Max: 1.76
ROC at 50% Max: .437%
Generally, 50% max take profit; roll out the short call for duration and a credit on side test.
