Gene,

We firmly believe that the SAME screening process that makes our premium stocks great monthly covered call candidates also make them eligible weekly candidates. For the last several months my team has been monitoring our premium stock reports to see how many candidates also have weeklys associated with them. Right now that number is under 5 per report many times lower than that. But as more products are added (as with the minis I wrote about in this article) that number will grow. BCI started reporting ETFs with weeklys a few months ago and will add stocks with weeklys in the near future.

These positions will rquire more monitoring but may result in slightly higher returns. In the screenshot below is one of our premium stocks with weeklys…LNKD. I have highlighted the current options chain as of 11:35 AM EST on Monday. Here are the potential results for a 5-day return:

$170 strike: 1% with 1.9% protection OF THAT PROFIT

$175 strike: 1.3% return with 1% upside potential

There is a HUGE demand for options and so we anticipate the list of our premium stocks associated with weeklys will grow over time. Click on image to enlarge and use the back arrow to return to this blog.

Phil,

There WILL be a discussion of exit strategies in the latter portion of my presentation. I will mention all the available exit strategy choices and give examples of two of them.

Does your webinar on Thursday include a discussion of exit strategies? I can really use some help in that area. Thanks.
