Seller's Paradise

This coming week there are 5 stocks with ex-dividend dates prior to Friday's expiration with dividend amounts ranging from 20 cents (FDX) to 50 cents (LVS), and annualized returns from 22% to 59%. For the complete list, visit our blog article Weekly Dividend Income June 16 to June 20.

In March we announced TraderMinute.com's new $100K Challenge, where they try to turn $3K into $100K in 4 months by trading options (not covered calls). This is the 12th time they've attempted the challenge, and the average win over the last 11 attempts is $27K (including two attempts where they met their $100K goal).

Update: We are slightly over 3 months into this 4 month challenge and the original $3000 is now $21,977, representing a 7x gain.

As a reminder, Born To Sell has arranged a special discount code where you can watch them trade live for 1 month for free (no obligation to pay). You will be a full member of their Live Trade Seat service and can see their trades real-time and ask them questions.

We read lots of investment blogs and discussion forums. By far, the best one for covered call investors is the Yahoo group Just Covered Calls. It has been around for years and has over 2770 members (over 400 more than the last time we wrote about it).

It's free to join and participate, is professionally moderated by a couple of active covered call investors, and is a clean, well lit place for you to get covered call trade ideas and ask covered call questions (they also discuss cash secured puts, an equivalent trade).

For more information, our review from 2013 is still valid: Just Covered Calls review.
