Thanks... Now that I've found the setups, I need to master the art of placing the order. I live in Florida (EST). Since I work a day job, I'm already at work when the market opens. I can't watch the stocks until maybe lunch or maybe the end of the day. That makes it tricky to place smart orders. Yesterday I used a limit order to execute a bull put spread on PRAA. It filled, then the stock dropped 3% and now I'm underwater. I can't imagine why the marketmaker didn't assign me yesterday. I use options xpress as my broker. I was thinking of placing contingency orders on all of today's setups but if I place contingency orders, it's hard to do that in combination with a limit order because I don't know where the price of the option will be when the stock price gets to my contingency target. Any ideas?? Thanks, Todd
