Best strategy IMHO buy and sell close month covered calls. IV is quite high now, or being more aggressive sell puts and buy calls ......... synthetic long, but rich premium

We have been having a lot of false starts but NAz bottom in price hasn't fell out on the high Beta's like QLGC, EXPE or EBAY and short options premiums are high. I been doing combos split by at least 10 pts pocketing the premiums until it is safer to make real commitment to equities.

What has been bothering stocks recently is fraud and high debt. Most tech stocks don't have these situations and if earnings improve prices are sure too follow. I just don't expect them to run away like in 99-00. Charts of S&P from 89-95 show low double digit returns. I just don't know how long it my take to get to that point before foreign money returns to make a long equities game fun.
