Clint Thanks for the update. Your options strategy is quite different than mine. I tend to use options on value plays. I usually buy pretty far out of the money, and swing for the homeruns. My thoughts being that I can have 3 or 4 total losers that are more than made up for by the homer. I'm guessing your use of options is more of a trading tool. You seem to usually buy in the money. What I can't really see is what advantages that gets you as opossed to a straight long, or short.(Other than the greater leverage, and limited risk-g-) I'll look at what you are doing more closely. Also, at least in my case the commissions are quite a bit higher on the option play, as opossed to the stock play. I am still riding my WMT play, I'm hoping today was it's key reversal. Their revenues will be down, growth is stalled, and they are up 70%. But I'm missing some great moves on DELL, and CPQ. One more question is, do you use stochastics? I'm wanting to learn more technical tools. Good luck with MOT Mark
