Barbara, it was not easy, nobody gives money away. In some trades I covered or sold to early, as in some instances I buy the stock and sell the call or vice versa - short the stock and sell the put.

On expiration week coupled with earnings report it is even more difficult to hedge properly, I bet Bonnie Bear is right about brokerage houses they collected close to $600 in commission only from my trades this week and I pay around $20 to $30 per lot (1000 shares)

New High in the OEX I think, so may be Arik is right well I need some rest for the weekend after this week.

Wanted to go short into the weekend but decided to cover with a small profit as the market showed such strength.

My guts tell me a down morning Monday

Volatility is typical of Market top. Same will be at market bottoms
