I was speaking of the Futures; For example they are at 8806 right now;

Selling one and covering at 8796 equals a $100 gain less commissions. It's a rather blah, conservative trade but not overly risky.

I don't know what the DJX keys off; there are so many new instruments I can't keep track. I guess it just tracks off the DJIA the same way OEX Options track off the S&P 100.

I do remember there is something that does not quite look linear using the DJX Options.....maybe it was the strike symbols....I can't remember. Soon as I looked at them I discarded the idea of trading them.

Not that it's a bad thing to trade; I just don't need to learn a new language.
