kevin..since you are busy get back to this later....

<Sorry if my thoughts are all over the place...you know that's how I usually think :-)>

yeah and so do I...sometimes it is hard to match them up

you missed a question....how are you determining the "break" point...I am not talking the pivot point.

Can you explain the difference between the two...or just give me the formula and let me figure it out for myself if you dont think it is right to explain

Also, what options are you looking at that could give you a point profit with the kind of spread that you have to deal with ...on such a small movement of the SPZ...it didnt fall much below your pivot point Obviously, these are the ones I need to be looking at!! because the ones i look at usually gouge you too much when the market moves..to make a point profit on a small move..I am definitely watching the wrong ones. If a thousand dollar profit can be made on such a small move..i think we all we take that...very little risk..but I would think the ONLY possible way would be to be on an at the money option and most of us on this thread wouldnt buy 10 of those!

This is something Brad and I talked about how you might be able to judge the movement based on what they are doing with the options..but I havent really looked at it too much.
