119. Establishing Our Cost-Basis for Long-Term Holdings
There are 2 distinct cost-basis scenarios for covered call writing:
1. Trade initiation cost-basis:
Stock price at the time of the trade for at-the-money and out-of-the-money strikes
The strike price for in-the-money strikes as we deduct the intrinsic-value of the premium from the stock price
If we buy a stock for $52.00 and sell the $50.00 call for $3.00, $2.00 is intrinsic-value and that “buys-down” our cost-basis from $52.00 to $50.00, the strike price
2. How do we determine cost-basis on shares we have owned for long periods of time, probably purchased at a much lower price than current market value?
A real-life example with Bank of America Corp. is used to highlight the calculations.

Customer Reviews
I want to listen, but….
I’ve subscribed and the few episodes I’ve listened to it’s pretty good stuff however for reasons I can’t explain, many of the episodes won’t download in Apple Podcasts (download failure). Not about to take on yet another podcasting player.
