I have been trading options for over thirty years. I have often made money on the option but lost more on the stock. I own Alan's book because he has developed a structured method of selecting the best stocks for covered call writing. If you follow his rules for selecting the stocks, selling the covered call and, if necessary, cutting your losers, you should be very successful.

This review is from: Cashing in on Covered Calls. Investing with Stock Options (Paperback)

The book contains key concepts for creating a potentially profitable trading system, but doesn't go into enough detail in certain areas, especially regarding what to do when a stock goes down. I wanted more strategies dealing with managing losses, but I think the author saved that for his extensive line of CDs and DVDs. But you can figure out strategies of your own if you research, ponder, and trade long enough.

My final word is for you the reader to enter the market slowly and get used to the rules of placing trades, to get a feel for how the market moves and how much, and to experience the feeling of having your money on the line (much different than when it's paper). Eventually you can move into bigger positions and discover how much "stress" you can personally endure. It took me many nights of half-sleep before finding a level of risk/reward I was comfortable with.
