Poet,
At last someone who explains in terms I can understand!
One thing, though, what is the risk or worst downside to cc?
Again, many thanks! Anna

Hi Poet - thanks for such a clear and thorough explanation. I have two questions about covered calls. Why wouldn't you sell a call that was farther out - say July - for the larger premium? Especially if you're trading in and out anyway? Also, is the money you receive for the CC actually credited to your account and marginable right away or does that only happen when the option expires?
