covered calls, naked call. stock trade ideas for thursday Jul 3th

I have not posted for a week.  Just wanted to wait for some stability in the market.  About 6-7 weeks back, I had posted about the market correction to levels of 11,800.  It has been worse than that. As a result I too am in deep red i.e is about 20+%.  I have not sold any and taken loss.  I am just adding more at attractive levels. This is the advantage of buying in small numbers.  Other than ETF's and some good names I do not buy.  Also as soon as I buy stocks, I write covered calls( 6 month leaps).

ccovered calls, naked call. stock trade ideas for monday Jun 16th

Most of my past week picks are in positive and some by 8-10%.  

  1. If I buy yhoo jan10, $12.50 calls, my cost would be about $11.  So I am willing to buy yhoo@24.50 in Jan 2010.   I think 1.5 years is a safe bet.  I may sell jan10 $10 calls and collect $13 now. So I am starting positive.

covered calls, stock trade ideas for friday 6/10/08

Bad times!!!!   If you enter market, enter small, do with covered calls of good stocks.   I like  ETFS.  I only add very small portions at a time when market dips like this.  I have accumulated XLF to date about 800 , 200 at a time.  My average is very low and hence losses are also low.  Also all the covered calls I did are helping me. <DISCLAIMER>  Do your home work before you buy any stock.  Please put stop loss as soon as you buy.

Jan09 covered calls, stock trade ideas for monday 6/9/08

  1. I buy EBAY@<29.50,  I will sell Jan09 $32.50 options, collect $2.50.
  2. I buy STP@<40, Sell Jan09 $40 options, collect>$8.50.  This is 20% profit, down side it will protect me to $32.  If it falls to $32, I will evaluate at that time based on market conditions.
  3. If I buy WM@<7.50, (PS: I own WM, my average is $9.89)I will sell covered calls Jon09 $10, collect $1.  New trading range for WM is $6.50-$9.50.  This will persist

my track record on trades, covered calls, daily stock picks, friday 6/6/08

You can just go back and see my picks. and see how they have done. Not too many loosers.  Some are down like TTM/WM.  But one should not worry on these in long run, WM, if it falls to 8, I will double my positions.  No one must buy any stock in lumpsum. I always do average down or up on good stocks. When some stock falls 10-15% or so,   if I beleve a perticular stock will be down for 6 months or more,I take losses. My covered call picks have done very well and I am reaping the profits.
