Since calendar year 2018 results included the market value of all 14 current Covered Calls Advisor Portfolio positions (listed in right sidebar of this blog) at the end of December, those same market values are used as the starting point for all 6 positions listed above for which Covered Call positions were established today.  This is done so that 2019 results can be calculated correctly from the January 1st, 2019 start of this new year.
