Shanstar,

Thanks for your reply, I hope you continue to do very well. Quick ?, what TA or FA do you use to determine whether or not to do the play? You don't just invest based on the premeium alone do you? I have found this to be painful! :(

Have you ever used your power options to pull up companies, say 1 week before expiration that were paying premiums of - say 10% or more and considered selling these option? Even if it is a poor company, you would be in only for a week and if and only if the premium is high it might be worth it. If you get called out, great. If not, sell the company after expiration and wait till next month?!? You might even be able to buy a put to help with the down side risk. I don;t know, just wondering. Anyhow, have a great week.
