MGM covered call FAQ

How much premium does a MGM covered call pay?

Premiums change daily with MGM Resorts's stock price and implied volatility. The Covered Call Pro screener ranks live MGM strikes by premium-per-day so you can see exactly what your shares could pay right now.

Do I need 100 shares of MGM to sell a covered call?

Yes. One options contract covers 100 shares, so selling one covered call on MGM requires owning at least 100 shares. If you own fewer, the position would not be "covered."

What is the risk of selling covered calls on MGM?

The main trade-off is capped upside: if MGM Resorts rises above your strike price by expiration, your shares can be called away at the strike. You keep the premium either way, but you give up gains beyond the strike. You also keep full downside exposure to the stock itself. This page is educational information, not investment advice.
