Jim Willie,

Thanks for the explanation.
It's all getting a bit clearer now.

In general, would the best time to write CC's for the highest interest rate, be immediately after the expiration date of the previous month?
Or would it be the last Friday of expiration, when the demand for the calls may be at it's greatest as people roll them over to protect themselves?

(Generally speaking of course...
I understand that that the call prices can fluctuate greatly over the course of the month.)

I guess my question is:
If someone wanted to set up a systematic method of writing covered calls each month for one month out, would the best time to write them be on expiration Friday at the given ATM price?
...or are there better ways of doing this by utilizing TA perhaps?

Thanks again.

-Clappy
