Rolled Forward and up UWMC Covered Call -9.17% potential income loss in 191 days

On February 18, 2022, I rolled forward 1 covered call on UWMC stock, a position I originally established at the start of October 2021 by investing $682, see: Established New Covered Call on UWMC; Potential Income return 3.9% in 7 days

United Wholesale Mortgage (NYSE: UWMC) is the wholesale mortgage lender

This week UWMC stock recovered a bit and reached our strike price of 4.5 and it was agreed to roll up and forward this trade

here is the trade setup:

• BOT 1 UWMC NYSE Feb18'22 4.5 CALL 0.30 USD

• SLD 1 UWMC NYSE Apr14'22 5 CALL 0.27 USD

here I bought back today’s expiry 4.5 call and sold the new, April 14, 2022 expiry call with a higher $5 strike price call option. In total paying $3 (before commissions)

What happens next?

On the expiry date, April 14, 2022, UWMC is trading under $5 per share -  options expire worthlessly and I keep premium - if UWMC trades above $5 on the expiry date, my 100 shares will get called away and I realize a loss of $6.26 or potential income loss of -9.17% in 191 days.

Break-even price: $6.82-$0.93= $5.89

Let’s see will I be able to recover this trade.
