With last Friday, I had 7 short calls expire out of the money, which I was happy about because it meant that I could write at least 7 new calls come Monday. And like Jimmy Buffett say, 'come Monday, it'll be alright.'
November options became available on the options calender. And CPSL was hovering right around 4.5 with some dips below. Compared to the October and December calls, November 5.00 calls seemed like the best deal of the bunch with a bid of .45.
I put in a limit order for Nov 5.0 Calls sell to open 7 contracts. It was filled immediately, and I came out with a net credit. That takes my return to ~10% or 5% over the next two months. That is what covered calls are all about.
