| Interpreting
the List
The first columns include the stock name
and symbol, the stock price, and the call option's symbol and strike (exercise) price. The next
two columns show the percentage returns if the stock does not change price by expiration (flat
return) and the return if the call writer is assigned on the call (return if called).
The net debit
is the net cost to run the trade, taking the call premium received into account, assuming the
trade was put on at the prices shown on the list. The downside
protection column shows the percentage the call represents of the stock price
- that is, the amount of price protection conferred by writing the call option.
The next columns show the open
interest in the call option (the number of contracts outstanding of that call),
the stock's average daily volume and the stock's
industry. We also show the Moving
Average Directional Indicator (MADI), a proprietary CallWriter indicator that
shows you where the stock price is in relation to its 20-day and 50-day moving averages.
Quick
Research for Conservative Results
Before running a covered call trade, it
is important to first do a bit of basic research. CallWriter makes it easy
and fast. Simply click the stock name, stock
symbol or call symbol to pop open
CallWriter's acclaimed Research
Page. This amazing utility allows you to do thorough research on any stock, and we have
aggregated the research your really need.
Please note that the Research Page cannot be opened from this sample list.
Our Research Page lets you research any
stock you choose, not just the ones on our Real Time Lists™. Simply enter the symbol for
another stock into the field at the top of the Research Page and you will get a fresh data page
(the same type of data page already open) for the new stock.
Fresher
is Better
Whether it's apple pie or a burger and
fries – or market information - we always want fresher. Because we know fresher is better.
CallWriter's covered call lists update
every few minutes, so you always have the freshest possible covered call returns. With CallWriter,
you never waste your time looking at stale data or spend time researching trades whose returns
have already vanished. We at CallWriter select trades off the very same lists as our members,
so we want them to be the best.
