CNOOC special div vs Rolling options
This post is a continuation of my previous post:
https://ttm.financial/m/post/9025801531?invite=S2ODHF&lang=en_US
After checking through time value of options, the nearest option that Has higher time value than dividends is
March 2023 $11.50 call.
Ya, u didn't see wrongly. It's 2023.
We are talking about rolling options from August 2022 to March 2023.
Am I mad? 7 months of rolling. Do people even do that?
Let's do some comparison.
1. I can close my call option and lose $1.195, to collect $1.18 from special dividends. Quite a no brainer.
2. I can roll the call option to prevent assignment, which I previously highlighted To March 2023.
I can roll for $1.74.
$1.74-1.195= $0.545 credit.
Is the premiun worth it?
$0.545/7= $0.078 per month.
Let's do a comparison of 1 month rolling,
Premium for Sept 2022 $11.50 call option is $1.265
rolling from august to sept will give credit of
$1.265-1.195= $0.07.
When we compare collecting premium of $0.07 for rolling of 1 month vs collecting premium of $0.545 for 7 months which is $0.078 monthly. It seems like a gd deal!
On top of that, we still manage to assign option assignment and collect the special dividends Of $1.18.
Overall a great outcome.

I am not posting my actual trade as eg, as I rolled ytd and the figures already changed from the time I did my rolling.

Hope that this post will be helpful esp to option sellers in the consideration of option rolling.
