Sell the Oct 16 $555 put. You get $1,970 now. In return you must buy 100 shares at $555 if SOXX falls there by Oct 16.
If it goes against you: you buy 100 shares at $555, which after the $1,970 you keep works out to $535.30 a share. Below $535.30 you are down on the trade. From that day the shares take above is the one that applies.

Why sell
The put: Oct 16, $555 strike, 25 days out. Pays $1,970. Roughly a 40-in-100 chance you end up buying the shares.
On paper: 52% a year. That number assumes SOXX keeps moving like it did the past two years. Take that away and it is +1% a year. That is why we say sell.
If you already own 100 shares
Income call
For income on SOXX you already hold: sell the Oct 30 $650 call and take $480 now. If SOXX climbs to $650 by Oct 30, your 100 shares are sold at $650, so only do it if you're happy selling there.
If it climbs past $650 your 100 shares are sold at $650 and you keep the $480. That is the trade working, not a loss.
