FAQ
What is 1DTE (Daily Options)?
It stands for '1 Day to Expiration,' referring to options that expire the next business day. Compared to monthly options, they allow for more flexible adaptation to index movements and efficient collection of option premiums.
What are the benefits of a covered call strategy?
By receiving option premiums, investors can generate income even in flat or slightly bullish markets. It aims for higher dividend yields and provides a small buffer against market declines.
How does it differ from existing covered call ETFs?
While traditional covered call ETFs often cap upside potential, this 1DTE strategy is designed to better capture the price appreciation of the underlying Nasdaq-100 index while still delivering high yield.
