Covered call for US Stocks?

2021-09-13

I've 100 shares of SAVA, tried to do a covered call but keeps getting rejected. The reason given is insufficient margin or balance.

This is very strange since the 100 shares I have will be the margin required.

Anyone managed to do covered calls? Or have the same issue?
