TheCoveredCall.com picks were a success in this volatile market only because we strictly adhere to the CANSLIM principle including the 8% sell rule.

Our biggest disappointment was Silicon Storage (NASDAQ: SSTI). The stock collapsed with the market and hasn't recovered, even after beating the Street in its most recent quarter. EMC (NYSE: EMC) shot up to new highs before correcting sharply with the market but then recovered nicely. Turnaround story PSFT dropped like a rock with the market but shot-up to a new 52 week high after blasting past analyst's Q3 estimates. But volatility or not covered calls saved the day for QLGC which generated a 12.3% profit on the Oct 100 calls and you get to keep the stock! QLGC's break even point drops to $83.87.
