Dan shifts from cash-secured put “double threat” setups to covered calls, especially the skate objective (keeping premium without assignment). He explains why technical analysis is often the most practical way to add edge to covered call strike selection, particularly by using resistance, momentum tools like RSI and realistic range expectations. He also walks through how to sanity-check any setup with annualized yield and what to do if the stock runs through your strike (accept assignment vs. roll proactively).
