no technical analysis. each week in its regular and expanded editions, value line lists 200 stocks to buy and 200 to sell. i select from among the 400 on a random number basis, until i run out of buying power, buying a call if the stock is rated 1 and a put if rated a 5. i usually hold till expiration at which time i sell the in the money puts and either exercise or sell the in the money calls. exercising has thrown my account into a debit balance but i feel i have enough puts if the market keeps dropping. each option purchase that i make amounts to an outlay of less than one half of one percent of the total value of my account. i generally avoid selling covered calls. regards
