GLXY covered call candidates — Oct 23, 2026, 36 days out
Strikes are picked by distance from the $22.27 share price, not by delta — the published chain carries premiums and open interest, not greeks, and inventing a delta here would be inventing data. Premium is the bid/ask midpoint where both sides quote, otherwise the last trade. The chain artifact publishes the six nearest expirations, so this is the longest one listed — 36 days out. Annualising anything shorter than a week says more about compounding arithmetic than about the trade, so those cells stay blank.

What the $23.00 call pays at expiration
One illustrative strike — the richest premium in the table — against 100 shares bought at $22.27. Profit caps at $300.50 if GLXY finishes above $23.00; below $20.00 the premium stops covering the loss on the stock.

When a covered call fits GLXY
A covered call sells someone else the right to buy your shares at the strike. It pays you today and caps your upside there, so it suits a holding you are content to own flat and content to sell at the strike — not one you expect to run.
The premium is compensation for implied volatility. Rich implied volatility pays more, and usually pays more because the market expects a move; a high annualised number on a name about to report earnings is a warning as often as an opportunity. Check the GLXY expected move and the open-interest walls before assuming the strike is far enough away.
