Trade #4 was a covered call expiring January 21, 2022. The covered call was on ATD.TO with a strike price of $49. I received a net premium of $139.05. This option expired worthless as the stock traded below $49 at expiration.
After that post, I did another trade.
On January 24, I sold 1 Jan 28 2021 $49 Call at $0.55. I received net premium of $44.05 after commissions.

On January 28th, the option was assigned as it traded in the money at expiration. When selling a call option, an option trading in the money means it trades above the strike price.
Summary:
In the original Savings Hack article, trade number 2 is the ATD.TO purchase of 100 shares.
Initial cost: = $4829.95
Option Assignment fee = $24.95
Net Option Premium = $44.05
Proceeds of Sale = $4900.00
Profit = Proceeds + premium - assignment fee - initial cost
= $4900.00 + $44.05 - $24.95 - $4829.95
= $89.15
This is capital gain I will report on taxes for the completion of this trade.
As per the above linked article, I transferred $300.18 to my savings. This $89.15 will be sent to my savings account. So that is a total of $389.33 to my savings.
