22. Are you generating Monthly Income From Stock Investments?

23. How to Generate Monthly Returns From Stock Investments?
You own 100 shares of Harley-Davidson stock worth $48 a share on July You sell someone the right to buy 100 shares at $50 from you anytime in the next 50 days until September 15, For that right, you charge a fee of $107.

24. Value goes up
The buyer exercises his right to buy the shares for $50. You keep the $107 premium and realize gain of $136 on sale of the stock for a 5.1% (36.75% annualized) rate of return and you'll have to find another investment to buy in order to continue the strategy.

25. Value remains the same
Since the buyer won't be willing to pay $50 per share when the market value is $48 you have made 2.2% over 50 days (16.2% annualized), and you can even sell the right to buy 100 shares again, presumably for another $107!

26. Value falls
The $107 premium you received helps to offset the loss. The buyer walks away when the right expires, and you're also free to sell another right.

30. Covered Calls Pitfalls
Covered-call writing is really quite safe and simple. But many people think this is a risky strategy... because most people do it wrong.
They buy high-risk stocks because the option premiums are expensive and generate the largest current return. But then, the stocks collapse, and investors are stuck with losses.

31. Covered Calls Pitfalls
The other pitfall to covered-call writing is that you sell off your potential for large gains. If you like the prospects of a stock and believe it could easily double or triple, then don't sell options against it. You'd cap your profit potential and guarantee that you'll be out of the trade before it goes higher.
Take our example. We are obligated to sell the 100 shares for $50. But if the stock jumps to $55 we will not realize the increased price.

32. Covered Calls Pitfalls
The secret here is to focus on buying low-risk value stocks and then selling the calls.
For my clients, I keep the risk very low by focusing on conservative, value-oriented stocks.
