At CallWriter we talk a lot about getting a
3% to 5%
monthly return using our proven, highly successful covered
call trading strategy - the CallWriter
Method. If you're wondering whether any
of our members actually achieve such a return (yes,
they do), then read on!
We'd
like you to know what happy, satisfied CallWriter members
have to say about our service,
tools and the results
they've gotten over the years with us...
"I
authorize debit to my Amex card in payment of the
first year for Call Writer. The 2nd trade already
paid for the year! You have a great service!"
D. Carrigan, Champaign, IL
"Hi
John...I have been a subscriber to CallWriter over
a year now and with this under my belt, I feel that
I have a bit of authority to offer my perspective.
During this year I have had some nice returns on
my investments and some really lousy ones. I keep
close records of what I do and I have discovered
that, without exception, the trades that turned
out poorly were ones in which I did something that
was contrary to the advice you give in the instruction
pieces. Hopefully I am learning from each experience;
it is one thing to read about a technique to use
or a position to avoid but quite another to put
that information into practice when needed.
I have come up with my new motto: Failure
does not come from ignorance as much as not applying
what we already know. I look forward to our continued
association and my better application of your advice."
B. Bates, Powell, Ohio
"I've
made a ton of money using your service. I have been
an active call writer for years but your site makes
it so much easier to find the good trades. I have
told several friends that "want to do what
I do" about your site. Unfortunately most people
will never take the 1st step to increasing their
wealth. My friends just think I am some sort of
money wizard or just very lucky. Little do they
know how easy it is!" S. McCormick, Edina,
MN
"OK,
John Brasher, you've put up the ultimate site. I
can do all my research and never leave CallWriter
until I punch "T" to trade with optionsXpress.
Thanks for your great tools and links."
T. Evans, Kiowa, CO
"Thanks
John, for your clear and prompt response. I understand
now much better the dilemma in my original question.
I am understanding a little better now how to use
both of your great tools together - the Calculator
and the Lists. Thanks again John. Great web-site,
great service, great example of 'Knowledge is Power'
- translate to 'Learning is Profitable'!"
F. Huber, Maryland
"John,
thank you for the reply. Your website is awesome,
well worth the price!" W. Minnery, Ohio
"Just
signed up for 2 month trial. Your articles alone are worth
the 79.95 fee." H. Hanono, California
"Thanks
for the very informative descriptions. Personally, I like
Covered Calls because I understand the theory and always
have made money on my trades. Your help is greatly appreciated."
Sincerely, A.G. McClay, Florida
"I
have been happy with my CallWriter results! I deposited
$5500 and in the 4 months since, the account has grown
nearly 20% - just $37 shy of a $1000 increase."
Ben W., Orlando, FL
"I
think I have been a subscriber for a month now and I would
like to relate my experience. I bought IIJI for $10.01
on July 11, sold a JUL 10 for $.55, bought it back on
July 13 for $.15 and then sold IIJI AUG 10 for $.90 for
a combined return of 13% or $1300 on a $10,010 investment.
Earlier in July I bought OVTI for $14.53 sold a July 15
for $.83 for a 5.7% return or $830 on a $14,530 investment.
The illustrated trades are from the stocks that I got
from your web site. I think if I had more time I would
do even better. $79.95 per month, are you kidding? Awesome
value. Thank you kindly," R. Stephens, Orlando,
FL
"I
am in the last days of the 10-day free trial and I'm convinced.
Please sign me up for the quarterly billing of your service
on the credit card info currently in my account. I've
made 2 trades while in the trial period and made over
8% in a week. Of course, I was blessed with a good market
and I certainly don't expect that kind of return. Your
stated 3% per month is my target." W. Manley,
Missouri City, TX
"I
attended your presentation last night and I thought it
was very informative. I've been using your system for
the past eleven months and have averaged better than 4%
returns per month, yet I still learned something
last night which will help me to increase my rate of returns."
S. Chanzes, Florida
"Hi
John, I don't know if you remember the GT trade I entered
back in February or not but it closed successfully today.
Here's the story... Just closed a covered call option
trade today on Goodyear Tire. Was way cool. Took 5 months
to complete. Two days after I placed the trade buying
8,000 shares of stock (and selling 80 call contracts),
the company came out with an "accounting irregularities"
memorandum. Since then I've been in repair mode.
It closed very successfully in the end and I made $10,590
in profits after commissions! Invested a little under
$40K. Used 2:1 margin. Made 26% total profit
after commissions or a tad under 5% per month! Sold
GT right at the high, too. Am delighted about the trade."
D. Elliott, Massachusetts
"John,
I took the time today to really look at your program.
My goodness, what a real winner you have put together.
Anyone, and I do mean, anyone that does not see the value
in your service has not been down "the golden path"
of all the BS that is out there. My compliments to you.
I will be taking advantage of your offer of the 2-fer!
You have a customer. Many thanks for you time on the phone.
One other compliment. Your educational material is clearly
stated, helpful, and literate, all unusual in the IT and
financial industries." J. Nance, Fairview,
Texas
"I
have been successfully using your covered call system
for a few years and it works well in a rising market,
flat market, and even a choppy market." D. Strohl,
Indianapolis, IN
"I
have been a long time subscriber and have used the info
on the lists for many trades. I average about 5% per month
on my money with covered calls, which I am extremely happy
with. Thanks again for the upgrades and keep up the excellent
work." D. McAlister, Overgaard, AZ
"I
just started with your service and am finding it very
good. I have been doing buy writes for about 15 years
now and your service is the first real help I have seen."
Phil Barker, Utah
"Do
you mind if I share these results with others? I want
to make the point that Callwriter is very conservative
with the members' money because I have had people that
are skeptical since they have been burned in the stock
market. I am very pleased with the results so far - since
I opened my account and the first trade as of July 30,
2003 I am up 16.9%. Most people I know would be ecstatic
with those results." David M., Grand Rapids, MI
"I
made my first covered call in January. I bought 2000 shares
of SNDK for $24.11 sold 20 February 27.50 for $1500 in
premium. The stock went down and I bought my position
back for $300, then sold 20 February 25's for $1500. The
stock was called away at $25 and I picked up the difference
of 24.11 and 25 which boosted my profit another $1780
for an even 10% after commissions." Robert
S., Apopka, FL
"Your
explanation about ITM options was very informative and
greatly appreciated. I have studied your tutorials and gleaned
pertinent information about ITM calls which I did not
find in any books, which leads me to wonder if the authors
ever traded options or are just expounding on theory.
Receiving in-depth information from a real trader is always
valued." D. Budd, Toronto
"You
will be pleased to know that with margin I have made
a return of some 18% from a total of 10 trades over
the period November/December of last year. Every single one
is a winner. Thank you indeed for your wonderful service."
S. Gardner, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
"Thanks
for your suggestions John. As a new subscriber down under,
I'm extremely impressed with your service and valuable
site content." Regards, C. Seidel, Australia
"By
the way, I find your website very useful and I especially
find that the newsletter archives are particularly well
written, and easily understood. In fact, I find that you
have the knack of making everything appear quite simple
(even subjects that probably are not)." T. O'Callaghan,
Ireland
"Your
explanation about ITM options was very informative and

"I
just want you to know that I absolutely LOVE this CallWriter
site!! What criteria do you use to get these lists because
all of these stocks are awesome writes!!!" Leah
M., Arizona
"EXCELLENT
I'VE BEEN DOING C.CALLS FOR SOME TIME BUT I'VE NEVER HAD
THIS INFORMATION. LOVE IT. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK."
D. Dube, Connecticut
"I
have trial periods with a few other covered call writing
services but will drop them as I really like your site
the best. I like the Real Time lists updated throughout
the day as opposed to end-of-day lists available elsewhere.
I also like the info you put on the Real Time list plus
the ease of researching each stock right from the list.
I also think your educational material is top notch and
am avidly studying it." W. Manley, Missouri City,
TX
"By
the way, kudos to your CallWriter program. Your lists
are great and that calculator thing is slicker than snot.
Fascinating to sit at the computer and play with both
of them." John White, Oregon
"I
am amazed at how many stocks still look good to trade
as of today - the day before expiration. I just checked
the call writer site. I would have expected the premiums
to be tiny at this late date." D. Nickel, New
Jersey
"Your calculator
is truly amazing! In my opinion, it is the crown jewel of your site.
In fact, it was the reason I was able to close my trades early and
get the returns I did rather than passively sitting there waiting
until Feb. expiration." Thanks, W. Manley, Missouri City,
TX
"Thanks
again for your excellent website and commentary. The Calculator is
great!" Regards, J. Gorin, Huntsville, AL
"I've
gotten pretty spoiled using CallWriter's tools, and if I did not have
the CallWriter trade management calculator available to me, I would
not bother writing covered calls, because trade management would be
too time consuming, too much of a pain without it. Especially when
you’re managing a lot of positions. It's hard to believe a trading
system can be so easy to learn and apply as yours, but the results
don't lie." David S. - Costa Mesa, CA
"CallWriter
has been an excellent tool in finding excellent companies with rich
premiums. But perhaps the most valuable tool has been the CallWriter
Calculator. Yesterday, I was able to unwind DELL at a nice 5% profit,
having been in the trade for only 10 days. The calculator made it
easy to see that by buying back the call and selling the appreciated
stock, it made sense to unwind the trade. Another successful example
that the calculator helped me with yesterday is UNH. It has proven
to me that even in a mildly downtrending market, money can be made
with covered calls. What a novel idea!" B. Winder, Oregon
"Your
discussion of RMBS during the last conference call (TeleLab)
was prescient. It turned out to be more volatile than
anyone else on the call expected. Fortunately, I wasn't
in it." Fred C., Las Vegas
"I
just wanted to say thank you for a great tele-seminar
last night. It was very educational (good refresher) and
informative, as well as enjoyable. It is always a pleasure
for me to listen to you speak and I always learn something
from you." Best regards, R.L. Jacobs, Dayton,
MD
"I've
paid for seminars where I didn't learn as much useful
covered call trading information as I've gotten on the
last two telelab calls. I still can't believe what a bargain
Callwriter is." Arch Turner, Little Rock
"I'm
a longtime trader and CallWriter subscriber. I listened
to the last recorded call for members and got a lot out
of it.” D. McAlister, Overgaard, AZ
"I
wanted to say Thank you for last evening's Telelab. It
was a pleasure. As you spoke I jotted notes and and as
I keep mulling your first question, "Would I want
to own this stock?" My perception for the use of
covered calls has changed. I can see where a portfolio
of quality want-to-own stocks can turn into a cash cow
trading covered calls. Thank you again," J.
Ziomek, New York
"I
enjoyed the program tonight. I learned several
things I didn't know about the site. I really
am enjoying using it and have had several really good
trades from the data. I'm using it to find good
spread trade candidates too. I know that high
implied volatility is a part of making the lists and
those are good prospects for credit trades too.
I really look forward to your member's class you mentioned
tonight. I sure want to be included in that." Thanks
again, R. Holmes, N. Carolina
"Your
deep OTM list is perfect for naked calls and bear call
spreads. When you told me you originally invented it for
naked calls, I thought the idea was inspired. I look for
situations with a strong resistance level below the short
or naked strike and pocket that premium." David
S. - Costa Mesa, CA
"Thank
you and I must say I am extremely impressed with your
prompt reply. I did not expect to hear from you this
quickly. It demonstrates the quality of service I am
sure your membership have been enjoying over the years."
Donald B., Canada
"My
first reaction to your email: WOW, I've never received
such a complete answer in such a short time from any of
the newsletters that I have tried. Thanks!"
Linda Nelson, Florida
"Wow!
I didn't expect you folks to respond on Sunday! Anyway,
Thank you very much. Now I can go back to trying to understand
all the info you folks have supplied." Charles
Larsen, Wisconsin
"You
guys are GREAT!!!" D. Chuchinsky, Connecticut
"Wow...what
a thoughtful, complete, informative and rapid answer.
I didn't expect so much helpful information. Not only
do I no longer care about delta, now I know why I don't
care. Thanks a lot." B. Bates, Powell, Ohio
"Dear
Sirs, Thank you for your input. Its great to
be associated with a company that responds so quickly.
Thanks again for your prompt response." K.
Knoke, Las Vegas
"John,
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for
your willingness to accommodate your subscribers. It is
a pleasure being part of your service." Dennis
Novak, Florida
