That's exactly what I did with my MSFT.  I sold covered calls, but at
the beginning of May, when it first touched the top of the channel.  I
sold June 125's for a *great* premium.  The end of May would have been
another good time to sell them.

I'm looking for a chance to get more MSFT for my brother-in-laws
account, so I'll be watching for MSFT to move over to the bottom of
the channel.  

The interesting thing about MSFT is that it seldom *falls* to the
bottom.  Mostly, it just goes sideways and up.
