I been kicking around the idea of doing options lately. Bought a call on ZE back when it took off and made a killing. Since then I have done a couple and have lost. At the moment I have a 17 1/2 July call on MADGF. I thought it had bottomed out at 15 1/2 but now it is down farther. This sounds like a safer way to do it. I like your strategy. Do you have certain criteria for the stocks you pick such as upcoming earnings,etc.? With tech stocks being so volitile I think they'd be a perfect candidate for this. Do you stay away from stock options with high premiums such as PRST. I've looked at this stock a lot, but don't like the premium. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I've been looking at ORCL, IOMG, IBM, NKE, VJET. Linda
