Today's New Positions

You'll probably notice that not all of the positions opened today met my criteria of 12% premium and 24% annualized return if called. However, this is more of a guideline than a solid requirement. I aim for 12%/24% if possible, but will accept a lower percentage between 10%/20%. EBAY was the exception is this case with a annualized return if called of 18.96%, but it was close enough.

However, all the companies met my fundamental criteria, which is a solid requirement. I'm willing to compromise on the returns, but not on the company fundamentals.
