At the moment I pick high market cap shares and see the chart for one year and if price is going up ,I will pick that share and if the premium is good I will select that share for covered write. Is there any other better way to pick the shares? Thanks for guidance.

Thanks for the replies. I have done what I said for two months and I have received about 20% income. I have tried selling puts but when prices are going down i tend to worry at the prospect that I will have to buy the shares. For two months I have only invested about 30k so this may not be...

I am about to make a beginning selling covered calls for US stocks. I have been doing this in UK for a long time. In UK my broker will buy shares for me and hold it in a nominee a/c. I have now opened an account with IB and I understand that they will not buy the shares for a nominee a/c...

Hi Foz, There is a 7 point spread between the buy and sell price for the djia plus a bias which can sometimes mean the price is up to 12 points away from the actual DJIA index value. So I estimate a 1000 points a year would not be enough, certainly a brokerage account is probably...

Hi, I have been trying to trade the DJIA with a spreadbetting company. I'm trying to develop a trading system but no matter what I try I can't seem to generate more that 1000 points which is before slippage/bias/spread. I don't think is in enough because it would mean betting quite large...
