Michelle,

As I am not a risk lover (though I take substantial risks from time to time) I strongly believe in hedging. I want to have calls in companies I like and puts in companies I do not like, companies which for some reason the market has short term trouble distinguishing. I am creating a short list of Inet companies to own puts and calls in. Till now, I would only own puts on CMGI, but I feel that EBAY is a good candidate too. I alredy have a lot of GNET calls. Personally, given EBAY's inability to maintain their site (a very basic need) I am convinced that over the short term there is a reasonable chance they will hit more glitches, thus losing market share. Now, my broker disagrees, so I am not getting puts for the time being.

I have DCLK Oct calls.

If you haven't traded options much I strongly recommend that you read the McMillan book first before delving into it.
