Does anyone play LEAP deep ITM bull call options on stocks and indices ? How much return do you usually aim for ? Below is an example
NVDA Dec 2028 expiry 145/150 call spread for $3.00. That’s roughly 67% return in 2.3 years with approx 25% annual return if NVDA stays above 150 strike.
NBIS Dev 2028 expiry 100/105 call spread for $2.00
That’s roughly 150% return in 2.3 years with approx 50% annual return.

So I just sold some covered calls against my position today. It’s a good sized position. 410 strike Call Dec 2026. I am planning to roll it to up-to $1000 strike if NBIS shoots up slowly (for break even strike price each time). For example if it hits $410 in October 2026 then I will roll it to $500 Mar 2027 etc., Since we have options listed until Dec 2028 I don’t think this will be a problem. Worst case I do not want to sell my stock for anything below 700. Anyone thinks I should not be able to do this ?

Looking for some honest input. I’ve been day trading for a couple of years now and I do well when I open and close positions the same day and go home in all cash.
The issue is that every once in a while I spot what looks like a great opportunity, go all-in on a stock, sell covered calls against it, and end up stuck holding for months. Sometimes those swing trades pay off nicely, sometimes they tie up my capital forever.
For context: I’ve beaten the S&P the past couple years, so I’m not losing money — I’m just torn on which approach to commit to.
My question for those who’ve been at this longer: where’s the real money for most retail traders — strictly day trading, or swing trading? Or some mix?
Appreciate any perspectives.

I am personally holding 5000 qty , bought recently earlier this month at $64. Planning to DCA if it ever dips 25% from ATH.

I am planning to sell naked puts on SSO to DCA at strike price 25% below current price. Pick 45 Days to expire. The premium is not much and only about $0.50 cents and SSO options are not so liquid. Anyone does anything similar ?
