    Poor Man's Covered Call Calculator

    A Poor Man's Covered Call (PMCC), or Synthetic Covered Call, is used to generate regular income as per the standard Covered Call, but instead of purchasing 100 shares of stock, a Deep ITM Call (which is often a long-dated LEAP) is bought.

    • Purchase a deep ITM long-dated Call
    • Write/sell a nearer-dated near-the-money Call
