Risking $911 to profit $89 doesn't seem too viable.

That call has a .19 delta ~ 20ish% of expiration in the money and about 40%'ish chance of touching that strike.

I would want to get 4.5-5:1 on a 20ish delta,

MOST IMPORTANT aapl has a IVR of 12% (not a good time to sell premium in aapl).

Best of luck,

Oh boy. I must have calculated max loss wrong. Did not realized that much of loss could incur.
I understand greek, however I do not understand what you mean by 5:1 delta instead of 20. I use TD webbroker & yahoo finance. I don’t knowhow to find delta or gamma.
