Kb, Thanks for watching HD, LOW, FAST, etc. In my "day job" I do not know when the next meetings, contracts or proposals are coming up. Sometimes I may not see any realtime quotes for two or three days running. Other times we wait.... Thus for me, one way to play FAST today is: STO April 50 Call BTO April 60 Call Based on yesterday's prices, this spread should generate $525 per contract. I agree with your assessment that the FAST chart screams out "50". The closer we get to that on 4/15/05, the more of the $525 I get to keep. If I am away from the action and someone offers to buyout FAST at $100/share, my "stop" will limit the loss to $475 per contract. I agree with you and dabum that the above approach is less than 100% satisfactory. It is a strategy partly driven by time constraints and risk tolerance. Another (perhaps more profitable) approach would be to short FAST at 55 with a stop at say 57.....
