Our website provides tools to track your adjusted cost basis as you implement the wheel strategy, helping you make informed decisions about your trades and maximize your potential returns.
Adjusted cost basis is the original purchase price of an asset, adjusted for factors such as dividends, return of capital distributions, and option premiums received.
When using the wheel strategy, you adjust your cost basis by subtracting the premiums received from selling puts and calls. If you’re assigned shares, your initial cost basis is the strike price minus any premiums received. As you continue to sell covered calls, you further reduce your cost basis by the amount of premiums collected.
