Hi Ben, 1. Thank you for pricing the toolbox at $8/mo. You're a mench and I appreciate it. 2. My Dividend Calendar is not populating with data. 3. The command to sort the Trifecta stocks alphabetically sorts the list Z - A. I made my first leg of a Trifecta trade yesterday (Monday 12/11). There's a good chance that the trade will end and expire worthless on Friday (12/15) with an approximate annualized yield of +136%. It's a great trade whether it ends this week or plays out to the end. Thank you.

Thanks. I'm not sure why your Div Calendar isn't showing data for you. I just tried it and it worked for me. Try refreshing the page maybe and wait a few seconds for it all to load. If it still doesn't work send me a screenshot and I can try to help you at ben@yieldcollector.com. Thanks for the heads up on the sort, I just fixed it.

Great video, just started this strategy. Quick question, if the Ex-Div date and Options expiration date are the same do you have to do anything different? Will the shares be assigned in time for the Ex-Div? Thanks again and keep up the informative videos!
@yieldcollector6 ай бұрын
For the instances when the ex-dv is the same as the expiration date I would sell a Covered Call then because you need to own the shares 1 day before the ex-div date to be eligible for the dividend.

Hi there. I've been tinkering with this strategy a bit. But I always find it takes much longer to get the shares called away for a profit than I had originally thought. With that said, are you still playing this particular strategy? And what are your thoughts for it in the current environment? Keep up the great videos!
@yieldcollector3 ай бұрын
Yeah I still use the strategy for a couple of trades per week. Sometimes it definitely takes more time than I plan for the shares to get called away. That can definitely be annoying. It all depends on the stock selection I suppose. Because of cash paying about 5% right now, I think this current environment is just not that great for dividend stocks. So the majority of my Wheel trades lately have been on growth stocks and the QQQ. When dividend stocks become more attractive again I will focus there more.
@fintechtate3 ай бұрын
@@yieldcollector That makes perfect sense! I started weekly wheeling just IWM recently and it's been doing really well for me. I have a small account and can't really afford to wheel SPY, but at some point, I might. IWM offers decent volatility so it seems to play pretty well.

Then it just turns into a regular Wheel Strategy trade. Just keep selling Calls (above your cost basis hopefully) until the stock bounces back and your shares get called away.

Noobie question here but what did you mean by sell a weekly call just outside the dividend range? If possible, an example? Thanks very much.
@yieldcollector9 ай бұрын
Example: PHM is currently trading at $96.31 and the upcoming div payment is $0.20. So I would sell a Call at a strike price greater than $96.51 (which is $96.31+$0.20). So I would probably choose the 97 strike.

I'd probably sell the 96 Put, and then if assigned I would then immediately sell a 97 Call at the first expiration date after the ex-div date. @@fabiGBOtown
@fabiGBOtown9 ай бұрын
@@yieldcollector would that run the risk of getting assigned at 97 before the ex date? Im assuming of course you're doing this before the ex date. Say ex date is 12/22 (made up date), you sell csp for the Friday before, gets assigned, you write the cc on Monday, 3 days away from ex dividend, do i understand this right? Im seriously considering this so Let me just ask, do you have someone on yieldcollector, which I use btw, available for these questions?
@yieldcollector9 ай бұрын
Yeah there would be a slight risk of early assignment, but that is fine too. You would be getting your shares called away at a price higher than your adjusted cost basis. Because you sold your Call slightly OTM, you would still be profitable, even if you didn't get to collect the dividend. Btw, I am the only one who made the yieldcollector app and I have no employees or anything, so all of the questions are answered by me lol.

I signed up for the tool and was looking at some of the stocks listed. Am I missing something? Some of these stocks do not have this expiration date (HBAN, VST, OVV as examples).
@yieldcollector8 ай бұрын
Yeah, as of right now when I run the scan for stocks I have no way of knowing if they have Weekly options available. So some of those types of stocks don't have Weeklies, so they will still show up in the list but won't be able to be traded. I am looking for a way to check for that and I will filter for that eventually. But for now just avoid those ones without Weekly options. Luckily most good stocks have Weeklies available. There currently aren't a lot of good choices right now for the Income Trifecta. It all comes down to when the good stocks have ex-div dates. Some weeks you get 3 pages of results, some weeks you get 1.

@yieldcollector8 ай бұрын
I haven't made a video yet on Buy-Writes, but if I want to capture the dividend, I just sell a Call for the expiration date right after the ex-div date. For the strike, I choose whichever is right out of the range of the dividend amount. So if a stock is trading at $50 and the div amount is $0.60, I would probably sell the $51 Call. Good luck on your LUV trade. @@johnwilliamson958
