Wondering if I did this correctly as DE was not called away.

on March 24—Bought DE at 80.33 and sold April 78 call @ $2.81
March 28 DE closed @ $80.17
March 29–Dividend .60
March 28 at close– strike + CC premium was less than stock price + divy

Thanks in advance for any input

Any thoughts on NKE? Down over 2.6%. Supposedly rumors of NKE buyout interest in Fitbit and also rumors of weak China footwear sales. Earnings March 22.

Thanks for your information Tom. I did read that article but unfortunately am still having some difficulty. I understand that once the dividend is worth more than the call option price plus the call strike, the stock is almost always exercised as the owner of the covered calls wants to pick up the dividend and then sell the stock. Where I am having trouble is how to arrive at the potential $73.50 and the expectation at what future point you should be exercised out of the position. Probably very plain to see but for some reason I am not comprehending.
