Arizona Financial Software has designed a program to help you write, analyze, and track the writing of covered call options. This program describes a very conservative use of options because it deals with options in a covered call strategy. Most sophisticated investors and pension fund managers consider the judicious use of writing covered call options to be one of the safest and most reliable investment strategies. For example, in their booklet "The Value Line to Option Strategies", the esteemed investment service Value Line states:
"Curiously, the most attractive option strategy when returns are concerned in relation to risk is covered call writing. It as provided profits over 20% a year with relative consistency and it is only about half as risky as holding a portfolio of common stocks."Writing covered call options is a reliable technique that you can learn, test, and experience at your own pace. As your confidence with the Altorfer system grows, you will realize that you can evaluate, adjust, and control your own reward-risk ratio, as you see fit.
