FCX is like a lot of stocks at the moment ... oversold and getting a bounce.
It is moving just above the lower band on its daily chart today and I would like to use this as an opportunity to put on a weekly covered call.
Buy FCX at the market, which is $6.93
Then Sell to Open (1) April 3rd - $7 call for every 100 shares you buy.
These are the calls that expire next Friday.
They can be sold for $0.35 and I suggest you collect the premium.
If the calls are assigned next Friday, the return will be 6% for a week and one half.
Based on the nominal portfolio, limit the trade to 500 shares or 3.4% of the portfolio.
