Patsy, that's a market timing question and so far, working with my charts and models, I've found writing calls very tricky indeed unless you do it as a day-trader and pounce on the occasion for a point or 2.

What's your strategy with INTC?

Compare the MSFT chart. When it touched 120 intraday a few weeks ago I was very temped to write a covered call at 115 or even 120. But although MSFT came down a bit I don't think I ever could have made more than a point or two -- this in exchange for the possibility of MSFT shooting up to 125 on somebody or other's "strong buy" recommendation.

good luck
