Dave and Herm, Waiting for the stock to hit the upper BB is good discipline as long as you have sufficient faith in the TA. I use it to time my rolls in conjunction with the relative time premium left in the calls in question. But I get nervous about owning stocks uncovered for any length of time in this frothy market, and look for positions in which I can write the call for good return as soon as I buy the stock. For me it's sleep! Sleep! And I am happy to say that I am sleeping pretty well, despite owning a viper like Edify. Indeed, we owe Herm our thanks, at least, for developing this, and ourselves a pat on the back for being respectful to everyone. Herm, I may be in the mood to make a donation in your name to your favorite charity by year's end. Cheers, Tuck P.S. David (I think it was you, maybe Dan): you were right about margin requirements for naked put writing. They are lower than either of us would allow for ourselves.
