Yesterday I BTC 2 VLO Dec08 20 Covered Calls and STO 2 VLO Mar09 25 Covered Calls for a net deposit of $95.01 in an IRA account. My basis for these VLO shares is now 54.29.
Well, my Dec08 Covered Calls didn’t last long. I sold them just last Friday (12/12/08) and here I am rolling them out already. I was able to roll the strike price up $5 but suspect that I will need to roll them out again prior to Mar09. I just hope that I will be able to roll the strike price up again. I expect that I will be able to though.
