The last five trading days ORCL has been showing strong bounce to the upside. I would expect that ORCL could hit 11 to 11.50 before a pullback.

When the (-orqhb Orcl's Aug. 10's) are worth $1.50 I will write some covered calls .(they are now worth $1.10)

At the current time I believe that writing a covered call that is slightly in the money will produce the best return while giving some protection to the downside.

I also would like to write some Aug.15's on CSCO when CSCO hits $15.40... The symbol for those interested is -cyqhc.

Covering the downside in years past was not a major concern. But times do change and so strategies must adapt.

If I knew what I was doing I would do it somewhere else..-:)
