About

About CURE

CURE provides 3x daily leveraged exposure to the Health Care Select Sector Index, amplifying healthcare sector performance for active traders.

Strategy

Covered calls on leveraged ETFs like CURE are an advanced strategy. Because CURE experiences accelerated decay and high daily volatility, selling covered calls can help offset the time-decay costs while holding the position. Short-dated calls (1-7 DTE) typically offer the best premium-to-risk ratio on leveraged instruments.

Leveraged ETFs decay over time due to daily rebalancing. Covered calls can help offset this cost, but understand the underlying mechanics before trading.

How It Works

How to Run a Covered Call on CURE

Own 100 Shares

You must own at least 100 shares of CURE to sell 1 covered call contract. Each options contract covers exactly 100 shares.

Choose Strike and Expiry

Select a call strike above the current CURE price (OTM) and an expiry date. 30–45 DTE monthly cycles are most popular for income generation.

Sell the Call

Sell 1 call contract to collect the premium immediately into your account. This income is yours regardless of what CURE does next.

Manage at Expiry

If CURE stays below your strike, the option expires worthless and you keep the premium. If it rises above, shares get called away at the strike.
