so if IOM does nothing, i still make cash . . But if it goes up you don't make anything. Usually covered calls are sold as a hedge against falling stock price. IOM being so low I don't see much downside risk.

Grapehopper, You can call me Jim, or you can call me Frank, or you can call me Rocky (oh no! not that!), or you can call me Bill. But if you are my friend, (and anyone that can hop a grape must be my friend), please, please, please don't call me Dave. Regards, David S.

To give away all the upside potential after waiting so long could be a regret. Is there that much premium?
