Thanks IRA...I used the six week period because in the past I noticed that an option that was worth 1.10/1.20 at the six week period was only worth .95/1.05 at the four week period.

I have no doubt that what you are saying is correct. I just never did the exact math on the matter.

Is implied volatility the same as the stock's beta?

Later today I will post the Sivy 70. This is a group of large cap stocks with good growth and earnings potential for the next year. They should also good covered call prospects.

To my way of thinking the major concern of covered call writing, is the collapse of the stock after the call is written. AMD and MOT are two stocks that have caused me some distress in the past few months.

Ira...thanks for your analysis, all thread viewers will benefit, from your exact mathematical models. I can see where my guesstimates come up short.
