>> Craig, are you still buying MSFT calls or are you only adding if it pulls back? <<

I added yesterday the 125's. Now have Jan 100's, 110's and 125's. I put in an order for some more today, but didn't get my price. I'm not too sure I will add more MSFT before the new year. If it pulls back in Jan or in the last couple of days of Dec I will most likely add.

All I am asking for is 7 measly days. I need it to hold up for 7 more trading days so I can defer my taxes for a year. Then I will probably swap out of the ITM's and put less $ on OTM's, exposing myself to the upside but with lots less $ on the table. I would've done this a couple of days ago had it been earlier in the year. But with 7 more trading days to go I didn't feel it best to rack up a huge tax bill and then have to worry about getting back into MSFT. It's always harder than it seems. Microsoft goes up for 7 straight days, pulls back just one day and you think to yourself, there's gotta be more profit taking than this! So you never buy back. You want MSFT to see 108-110 before you load up again. Well it never does, so you miss the ride. This is a kind of market where you have to be in the market almost all of the time. You get out for longer than a day or two and you are eating everyone else's dust.

MSFT is trading consistently around a point higher after hours to around 116 3/4 - 117
