Ford Motor Company
Ford is the canonical wheel-strategy name: low share price ($10–$14 range), reliable dividend, and liquid weekly options. Premium yields are modest in dollar terms but high relative to the small capital outlay.
IV typically 30–45%. Ford and the dividend pull retail premium sellers to the name in large numbers.

IV typically 30–45%. Ford and the dividend pull retail premium sellers to the name in large numbers. The exact yield on any specific F covered call depends on the strike you choose and how many days remain until expiration — the calculator above pulls live option-chain quotes and projects the annualized return for any strike/expiration combination instantly.
F's implied volatility expands meaningfully in the weeks leading up to an earnings report, then collapses after the event ("IV crush"). Most disciplined F covered call sellers either skip the earnings cycle entirely or write a strike materially wider than usual to compensate for the elevated single-day move risk. The calculator's "If called away" row shows your worst-case capped upside if the stock gaps through the strike.
Pick an expiration and strike from the live F option chain, set your contracts and cost basis, and the calculator computes your premium received, breakeven, capital at risk, return-if-flat, return-if-called, and annualized yield. Everything updates instantly with no signup required.
CoverEdge auto-syncs from 80+ brokerages and gives you a full income ledger, AI roll recommendations, and tax-ready exports.
