Hi again Herm and all. Hope you are all making money. I don't do covered calls very often anymore, but will use them occasionally. I have been trading many lately. I bought and sold amkr twice and am thinking of buying again. Made $2 /share and 50 cents a share. ( 2 month time frame total) I was out the last time at 11 1/2 since my market indicators turned bearish. I am currently in cube, which is undervalued, but falling with the market. I have bought and sold it twice, and am on my third time this month. The reason I am posting now is that once again I am very bearish. In fact, I am thinking of either selling deep in the money calls on my only long and going to all cash or short. There are only a few areas of strength, but very few. In fact, I personally think we are at the beginning of a "crash". So, caution is definitely advised here and maybe even some of my favorite "bear" traps. As you know, I only short the "high flyers", and will post some of my picks later this evening if anyone is interested. I have a few longs for review also. I will come back later to see if there is any interest and give links to charts as well as reasons for my opinions. good luck and happy investing.
