Coordinator’s Message

By Ian Flack

This month we are fortunate to have an extensive overview of Buy – Write covered call strategies by Marcus Addison. Marcus overviews the recently available research on the performance of Buy–Right strategies. He looks at this strategy for both individual stocks as well as the use of index options to enhance your total portfolios performance.

Danny Moss and Owen Beattie explain the “Channel Spread” Options strategy and its power particularly in a range bound market.

We have again this year had a great variety of articles relevant to the current market. Thank you to all contributors. I would love to hear feedback from anyone who has tried any of the strategies discussed this year and particularly if you are prepared to include a case study or traders diary in a future issue.

Membership of the AIA continues to be a great investment and I take this opportunity to thank Silvana and the committee for their continued work to assist members’ needs and interests.

An enjoyable and safe Christmas to all.
