Illustrative example · marked answer
Constructed response6 min

A client holds 2,000 shares and expects the price to stay flat for three months. She wants extra income and accepts limited upside.Recommend one options strategy and justify it with one reason.

Covered call: sell calls on the shares she already owns, because she expects the price to stay flat.
Marked · 1 of 2 marksFeedback
EarnedStrategy correct. A covered call fits a flat price view.
LostThe reason uses her price view but not her income objective.
Next timeTie your justification to the objective the question states.
What marking looks like
