Dave, Actually when spread was put on the inside-outside spread on 80-85 calls was 2 1/8- 2 5/8 so I figured that if it went 5 pts. against me that I could get 2 3/8 and unload the entire position then for a 1/2 pt. loss. Getting inside fill for single option? Possible for very liquid options. Have had trouble even getting the bid or asked on the few single options I have done since becoming active again. Unloaded the Dell spread this morning for 1 1/2. The inside-outside spread at the time was 1 1/4- 1 3/4, put in at 1 1/2 and got a pretty quick execution. Schwab made more on the trade than I did but it was a way to test their spread executions. Would appreciate hearing about other firms executions. Ken
