Uncle Frank,

I appreciate your concern about the direction the thread is taking. While my own interest in options is considerably broader than covered calls, you are quite right that we need not discuss all conceivable options strategies on a thread dedicated to covered calls. There is a lot to be said for keeping the thread focused on one strategy, and doing it well.

I hope I have not wandered too far afield in my contributions here. My intent has not been to convince anyone that CCs are not appropriate, given the right circumstances, but to challenge people to think about whether their circumstances, or their trading patterns are getting the most from the strategy. Perhaps enough has been said at this point and it would be best to delve deeper into the branch-off topics in another setting.

Before I posted on this thread, I made it a habit to monitor "Options for Newbies -(Help Me Obi-Wan-Kenobe)" at

Subject 15384

to be of any help I could to anyone interested in options. I was invited by someone there to come over here and contribute where I could. Funny thing is, that person doesn't seem to be around here anymore. I thought that might be a good place to move the discussion, but it's probably best to keep that thread dedicated to the basics. I will continue to monitor that thread and will be happy to answer any questions there. In addition, my little contribution to help you and others in the core group who started this thread keep things on the straight and narrow is to start a new thread and suggest that people who are interested in exploring some of the broader topics move the discussion over there.
