Trade continuation: SLV Silver ETF covered call

SLV has risen sharply in the last few days. I find it hard to resist rolling forward for a short period of time, getting a net credit and increasing the strike price so I can participate some more in the price increase. I had that opportunity today with SLV.

BTC 4 SLV Oct 28 32 Calls @ 1.71
STO 4 SLV Nov 19 33 Calls @ 1.92

This trade brought in $21/contract, lowers our cost basis, increases downside protection and allows us to participate more in the rise in price. With the market rising overall with the easing of Europe fears I'm not particularly excited about entering into new income positions.
