Example: Entering a covered call

We're going to add a covered call manually.


  1. Head to the trades page (https://optiontracker.io/app/trades)
  2. Click 'Add trades'
  3. Search for the stock ticker
  4. 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.
