META covered call FAQ

Is META good for covered calls?

Meta trades at a high share price with elevated IV — a combination that puts the dollar premium per contract among the highest of any mega-cap. Sellers who can absorb the assignment risk get paid well.

What's the typical META covered call yield?

IV typically 25–40%. Earnings have produced both 20%+ rips and 20%+ drops in recent years — size positions accordingly. The exact yield on any specific META 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.

How does META earnings risk affect covered calls?

META's implied volatility expands meaningfully in the weeks leading up to an earnings report, then collapses after the event ("IV crush"). Most disciplined META 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.

How does this META covered call calculator work?

Pick an expiration and strike from the live META 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.
