>> It's interesting that Jerome's primary strategy is a buy/write. He buys the stock at the low end of its trading channel and immediately writes the call at the next higher strike price one or two months out. That's a little different from the strategy most folks seem to be discussing in this (the dummy) thread. Interesting. It's not the classic covered call, and it's not the classic buy/write. Maybe that's why he wanted a forum dedicated to his unique approach. duf
