I post as James Ball out of laziness. James Ball or Jay Ball is one of my analysts and key people in my firm. When we first went to SI he is the one who signed up for our password, not really knowing how it worked. As it turns out his name is on the thread as the one who signed up but I am the one who uses it. I always sign my comments as Tom Dorsey so there is no question who is saying what. I'll tell you what. I'll stop being lazy and get one in my name next week. I've answered this question before so this will end the question. Don't think I'm hiding behind his name, his profile expalins exactly where it is coming from. Next week I'll confuse people by using my own name. Thanks for the question. See ya next week under Tom Dorsey, Tom Dorsey

A covered call question to anyone....
If you sell calls on your stock and the stock moves up and is trading in the money and closes on expiry in the money are you always called out on your stock?I've heard of some cases where the stock doesn't get called but I was wondering if you have a chance of not getting called even if your stock is above the strike price by 10 points or so....

Thanks to anyone who can help....
