Freeus: <<< Do you just do options on DELL now? I'm thinking of cisco too>>> Sold my Csco calls while they were still up. I have options on 11 others, like msft, intc,lu,mrk,idtc. And very cheap (<$3) puts on ibm,hwp,dis,cci which is a bit of downside protection and must hope I lose them all by having the market go up(ggg) I also have small amounts of stock in csco,intc, mspg,rmbs,hboc,yhoo, geoc, and a couple crums( Can you say ZAP or COOL???) Partly because yhoo options are too expensive for my taste, and because I want to own csco and intc forever Overall tho, am still >97% Dell and my other holdings can still be called junk in comparison. <<< Would you put in a sell order with your buy order on buying calls? >>> I don't, but thats partly because most calls I have are Jan or Feb, must give them a chance to mature.
