Systematic Covered Writing

... more than just covered calls!

It's About Value

The following examples are selected because they all have one trait in common.  During the holding period they all experienced a significant loss in value. Having trading through the bad times for these stocks helps the covered writer continue the process with current holdings. A common thought to consider is that each time a stock is selected, losses in value may take place at some point during the holding period.  Knowing what to do, and developing a plan that you are comfortable with should be part of your SysCW process.
