>> Craig, You must be VERY BULLISH about Softies <<

Yap. As bullish as I was on AOL in late Sep when it was 85 (pre-split). As bullish as I was when I implored William to buy more VERT and he said "Geez, Craig. I AM long." (He wasn't long enough...hehe)

>> buy option on its first day pullback! Open my MSQAV (Jan 125 call) as Craig suggested -- only 50% though, I'll prepare to average down another 50% in the next 2 days. <<

True, it's first down close after 7 up closes, but I bought 5 points off the intraday high set 2 days ago. I only bought a fraction of what I might end up with. I plan on buying twice as much on the next 2-3 points down, and then twice as much as that on the following 2-3 points down. So if MSFT keeps pulling back I could end up increasing my position sevenfold. (1 + 2 + 4 = 7) I'm not going to try to time MSFT, I am just going to dollar cost avg my call position higher. I spose if the bonds just totally collapse I will have to rethink this strategy.

For some reason the 125's looked like a better deal than the 120's and 130's. Perhaps there are a lot of bids for the 120/130 because they're a nice round number?
