IBIT Covered Call Strategy

Covered calls on IBIT allow shareholders to collect premium income while holding the stock. The most common approach is selling out-of-the-money calls 30–45 days to expiration (DTE) to balance premium income with potential upside. If you own 100 shares of IBIT, you can sell 1 call contract per 100 shares to generate consistent monthly income.

Covered calls on IBIT cap your upside at the strike price but provide downside cushion equal to the premium received.
How It Works

How to Run a Covered Call on IBIT

01
Own 100 Shares
You must own at least 100 shares of IBIT to sell 1 covered call contract. Each options contract covers exactly 100 shares.
02
Choose Strike and Expiry
Select a call strike above the current IBIT price (OTM) and an expiry date. 30–45 DTE monthly cycles are most popular for income generation.
03
Sell the Call
Sell 1 call contract to collect the premium immediately. This income is yours regardless of what IBIT does next.
04
Manage at Expiry
If IBIT stays below your strike, the option expires worthless and you keep the premium. If it rises above, shares get called away at the strike.
