Introduction Compact

I decided to make a contribution on this great web page for all those individuals interested in learning how to write (sell) covered calls options.

I have helped several readers on this forum and personally at my place of work. No, I'm not a broker or selling anything! I'm happy and proud to say that the people I have helped are all either NOW MAKING MONEY (8% to 25% per month) or are getting out of jams THEY created!

We all make mistakes and we all can relate an experience when we lost money! We must learn from our lessons and NEVER MAKE THOSE SAME MISTAKES AGAIN!

I have never done this before in this particular format. So, I have much to learn. I have choosen the stock called ROSS Stores Inc. (ROST) on the Nasdaq as the case study. Week to week, I will monitor and make my post on the why, how, when, and the bottom line. HOW MUCH PROFIT HAS BEEN GENERATED!

You should learn about the mechanics of successful covered call writing to generate great profits. You will learn what to do when and why to enhance your position or protect your position.

And finally, we should hear from others that may have even more experience than I do. I'm always on the lookout for the better way. Hence, we will all learn some valuable lessons.
