Cool 10% guaranteed return in buying stocks and options! I didn't know that was possible./----/ or buy 100 shares of Netflix and sell a covered call expiring Dec 18 2018 at the money and get $3,050.

/---/ If Netflix is below $365 on 12/18 you keep the $3,000 and your stock. If it's over $365 then you keep the $3,000 and the market maker buys your shares at $365 each even if the stock is at $400. That's their incentive. It's like real estate's rent with the option to buy. I made $115,000 YTD doing this. Most stocks and ETFs have options.

Interesting. I've done well trading stocks, never shorting and never doing options but it would be interesting to try it.

No options strategy is without risk. That's what I was referring to. I agree the example you give has a good probability of making money.

I hear you and I see the benefits of an options strategy. Parking money in a CD is not an investment strategy for me, It's for de-risking my portfolio.

Only thing that beats covered calls are arbitrage strategies
/----/ You can thank Slick Willie for taxing Option trades. My broker does not report the trades to the IRS, my accountant includes them because if I'm ever audited I could get slammed.Damn,, I miss the late '70s.
