We have a number of Triple Play Income positions with calls expiring today. We will break this into two alerts and get most of our positions rolled today.

TRADE ROLL

IBM (IBM):  129.58

IBM had a good Q3 earnings report earlier this week. They beat EPS estimates by a penny but revenue was up 6.4% year over year which gave the stock a 6% boost the next day. The stock has traded back up to the 130 range and we can roll our short calls out today.

ACTION: Roll the IBM 21 Oct 134 call to the IBM 4 Nov 13 call for a net credit of around 0.98 to 1.00 and a 0.8% return

BTC the IBM 21 Oct 134 call

STO the IBM 4 Nov 133 call

TRADE ROLL

Kraft Heinz (KHC):  35.15

Kraft stock price has quietly put in a bottom for now and is gradually trading higher. This is the stronger food producer play in our portfolio and we can continue to manage this position for cash profits going forward. The company does report earnings next Wednesday (10/26) which has resulted in elevated premiums but we can trade ahead of that and raise our strikes as well.

ACTION: Roll the KHC 21 Oct 35.50 call to the 4 Nov 36.50 call for a net credit of around 0.50 and a 1.3% return
