Covered calls on HD

The Home Depot was trading at $287.15 when this page was last refreshed on September 30, 2026. The last scan of the HD chain found no call strikes that were both inside the 0.15 to 0.25 delta band and liquid enough to write against, which is a real answer and a fairly common one.

Numbers on this page come from a snapshot taken on September 30, 2026. They are not live quotes and are not refreshed when you load the page.

The last refresh found no call strikes on HD that were both inside the target delta band and liquid enough to bother with. That happens, and it happens most often for the two reasons you would guess: the strikes that pay anything are too close to the money, or the ones far enough out have a book so thin that the quoted premium is not a price anyone would fill you at.

What the premium is priced off

At-the-money implied vol sits at 25%, which is ordinary for a name this size. Nothing in the pricing is unusual, so the trade lives or dies on strike selection rather than on the vol.

Dates that matter in this window

The earnings calendar was checked and came back clean for the 45-day window. Worth confirming yourself before you write anything: calendars move, and an unconfirmed date is not the same as no date. The stock pays about 3.2% a year, and no ex-dividend date was confirmed inside this window.

Questions people actually ask

What is a good strike for a covered call on HD?

On the last refresh no HD call in that band passed the liquidity screen, so there is no honest answer for this snapshot. Check a live chain rather than taking a stale one.

How much can you make selling covered calls on HD?

Nothing in the last snapshot was writable, so any number here would be invented.

Does OptionsKing recommend selling calls on HD?

No. This page is a dated snapshot of the chain, not a recommendation, and the app has no opinion to offer beyond an ordering. It scores every in-band strike and shows you the best few by rank, with no minimum score anywhere, so at the last refresh 1 of the 1 in-band strikes were scored and the top few would have reached you whatever those scores were. See how the scoring works and the full disclaimer.

Read this as a snapshot, not a suggestion. It is where the HD chain stood on September 30, 2026, and every price in it has already changed.
