Jake,

I sold those Jan 120's for about 15 bucks a while back, I've rolled up a couple of times since.

Right if the announcement is good or if a split, I'm gonna hold. When I sell is more art than science with me. You know, sell your losers quick and let your winners run. Since I'm what you might characterize as a momentum trader with options, I'll let those options run till they hit about 15, then will be ready to pull the trigger when I sense the momentum slowing down. It's my belief that we're very close to a Nasdaq top, so I'm ready to take my profits fairly quickly.

But I do want my lotto tickets to hear the earnings. Very risky, but I think a good risk, and isn't that what we get paid for?
