Gawd only knows where MSFT's going this week (though I have an idea...)

Would you mind sharing your thoughts?

I'm short Apr95P @ 6 5/8 and I'm trying to decide what to do. I'm thinking the initial down draft will take it to 100 then 95 and from there on 85-89 should hold. I think volatility will take it no higher than 100.

My current plan is to short the Apr95C (hopefully @ 6+) to create a straddle at 95. Worse case, I'm willing to buy MSFT at effective cost of 83ish.

Simplest action is just to close the Apr95P at probably breakeven. I just hate to see my gains vanish.
