Dan,

Another post that has to be archived and read very carefully. I'm reading it as my first bit of morning stock market work this Wednesday morning. Since I'm on the go much of the day, I won't be able to read it slowly enough to get a handle on it until tonight. I find I need to see if I can rephrase this kind of material, material that is just beyond my present level of understanding, in my own words (in effect, to teach it to myself) before I can see clearly what I don't understand. Then, I'll get back to you.

On the subject of the time premium, I've begun to focus on it in my reading. Your post is right at the point of my next set of questions--what is the rate of decline, what does that have to do with movements in the underlying, etc.?

I'll be back.

John

P. S. I'm holding off on the Qcom buy/write (as opposed to the center piece of this topic, writing against core holdings) until I get a better picture of this afternoon's Fed decision and its effect on the market.
