Last example: nikola triples in value in 16months;
4500 in stock since youre forced to sell those sweet, sweet 300% gainers for 45 instead of 93.75
2000 put collateral
905 put premiums
1300 call premiums.
8705 returned on 5125 invested =+70%

Had you bought 196 shares for 5125 directly you would now have 18,375 for +200% gains.

So, investing directly in NKLA indicates you believe it has lots of upward potential past the +70% gain limit/and profitting on a stockloss of up to -53% is not applicable since its +70% in 16-months rangebound.

196x = 4205+100x
96x = 4205
X = 43.80 is the price at which buying 5125 in stock now exceeds the return you get on a 20/45 put/call spread that profits on losses, flat pricing and respectable gains.
