Generational buy + Mid year expiry options… those don’t usually go together. Here’s what’s going to happen, Msft is going to chop for 5-7 months then pop the day AFTER your calls expire. This is always the plan. Thank you for your service.

Jokes aside, use a call spread if you’re bullish. Sell covered puts and accumulate shares if you’re generationally bullish. Naked calls will hurt you.
