One of these days this market will really rally. And people with CC's will be miserable, and forget the good days when they pocketed cash at the expense of the bulls.

Great post...

It seems like it is just human nature to develop a blind spot to the risks associated with a strategy that works month after month. Looking at Qualcomm reminds me that even during an absolutely miserable past year, it went from 63 to 107 in about 6 weeks (Nov. to mid Dec.). This would have hurt pretty bad if I had been selling covered calls...

I think that the thread has been pretty good at examining the various covered call strategies...but their hasnt been much opportunity for analysis of repair strategies. I would be pretty surprised if the same thing will be able to be said six months from now.

Just my two cents....
