If you're not completely blown away, maybe you'd like to talk a little
more about the selling against the box technique? I'd like to know,
for example, what you will consider good in your BTGC case. You say
you want to win 8 out of 10 (as do we all) but I'm a little confused
what will constitute a win in your BTGC shorting against the box.

It seems like it might be a good technique for when you don't read the
chart well .... er... exactly right and the underlying stock takes off.

For example, take a look at the chart of TECD.

askresearch.com

I sold the DEC 45 calls at that little down turn in RSI you see near the right side, and I still think my decision was sound and I will
make a good profit if TECD stays anywhere above 27, but now I'm
intrigued by your Selling Against The Box technique. Does it have a
place in situations like this? I see TECD is bid at 52 a few moments
ago.

As always, your thought and insights are greatly appreciated.

Ray

PS why can't I get that chart address to be hot? Anyone?
