Covered Call
Sell upside on an asset you already own in exchange for premium.
When to use
You hold an asset (e.g., WETH), think it will trade flat or slightly up, and want to earn yield on it. You write a call at a strike above the current price. If price stays below strike at expiry → option expires worthless, you keep the premium + your WETH. If price crosses the strike → buyer exercises, you deliver the WETH at the strike (still at a profit vs your cost basis, plus the premium).
On Obsidian
Open Options → Write tab → select CALL → pick strike (usually 5-15% OTM) and expiry (usually weekly or bi-weekly). Lock WETH as collateral. Quarry starts accruing OBS until the position closes.
