Example: Entering a covered call
We're going to add a covered call manually.
- Head to the trades page (https://optiontracker.io/app/trades)
- Click 'Add trades'
- Search for the stock ticker
- You can now add your trade using either the single leg option or the multi-leg. Multileg just makes it quicker if you're trading multiple legs.
Either will work and multi-leg is added primarily for people trading lots of contracts.
Single Leg entry (adding 1 leg at a time)
- First add your stock purchase as in this animation:
- Second enter the call that you sold as the animation below shows
- You can now view this position on the trades table
Multi-leg entry (adding multiple legs at the same time
- Head to the multi-leg tab
- Follow the guide in the animation below.
