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.
