re: with the influx of momentum traders the Call Out is becoming even less of a worry than in the past

You know I haven't thought of that. I used to do a lot of call writing in the 1980's early 90s, but I got sick and tired of getting called out all the time of stocks I wanted to keep, as you know the commission at the time was large to say the least, it was costly, but with the action they way it is now, I can see having days to make a decision. hmmmmm

Thanks,

greg

Volty, I'm really confused. Are you saying that if P writes cc at 155, and stock goes to 170 and stays there, P will still not get called? Is this possible? Wouldn't the MM take the stock at 155 since they can then sell it for 15$ profit?

Can you explain this in more detail? Is it unlike puts?
