$Ford Motor (F.US)$ I have calls written against my shares at various strikes and dates, the strikes are from $17 to $25, just waiting for time premium to drain out on the the $17s. However, these aren't recommendations for anyone else. I was buying shares under $5/share, so these are the right sale prices for me, not necessarily anyone else.

Robbie Showen : Curious (not specific to your F calls), do you ever decide to exit a CC, or roll it, (perhaps at a loss) before expiration? If so, how do you analyze to decide the specifics of the closing transaction?
TCFIT_365 Robbie Showen : Not sure this is applicable to anyone else, but happy to share my process.
I have a personal history of taking gains too early, so I'll typically write calls against positions where I already have a decent gain 50% or more to get over the psychological barrier of wanting to sell, knowing that my instincts are generally to get out too early. At the same time, having the call in place also prevents me from getting too greedy.
Dogoro777 TCFIT_365 : My bias differs from yours: I tend to favor getting out "too late." Recently I've tried to mitigate that bias by using trailing stops (typically as a % drop rather than a $ amount) to take me out of a newer (short-term) position. Conversely, if I'm not married to the stock I might write calls against the entire position, and live with the outcome. But for others (such a $OLN, about a 4-bagger for me in just over a year), I'll cover 25-50% of my position to take-some-off, leave-some-on, if I get called.
Mittchell : Ford plans to increase annual production of electric vehicles to 600,000 units by 2023.I am still very optimistic about Ford's prospect.
Lionnell : I also own this stock and expect it to rise
