Herm, BTGC, NOVL and NEM are some stocks that have been CC and short plays recently on this thread. I have an interest in each and wondered if you could give us a brief update on your thoughts. As always, grateful for your terrific insights, John

Herm: I have been watching xyln. It has tagged upper BB and RSI is high. In W.I.N.S. the other condition before writing a CC, volume must be at least 50% above average? Please confirm. Thanks Mo

Herm, <<You broke the W.I.N.S. rules of selling CCs only at upper BB tags and peak RSI reading to avoid exactly this kind of thing. >> Hanging my head in shame!!! Also paying the price. I knew I should have posted beforehand to get your opinion. Live & learn. Thanks for your help Bill/WA
