What must be true before a setup appears
Hard $150 cap
Maximum premium cannot exceed $1.50 per share or $150 for one standard 100-share contract.
Time remaining
New recommendations require more than 14 calendar days to expiration; 21 to 90 days is preferred.
Usable market
Nonzero bid, acceptable open interest and volume, and a reasonable bid-ask spread are mandatory.
No lottery tickets
Extremely far out-of-the-money contracts are excluded merely being cheap is not a thesis.
Underlying stop
Risk is anchored to the underlying technical invalidation, plus a maximum acceptable option loss.
Sell before expiry
The default plan is to sell the call before expiration—not exercise it—and reassess by 14 days remaining.
Category-specific risk
Long calls are leveraged and complex. They can lose 100% of the premium. The displayed maximum contract cost excludes any brokerage fees and must be rechecked with the broker's current ask before an order is placed. Options require brokerage approval.
