Teflon, May options are safer but the implied volatility as noted by taxman is a little higher. To me it all depends on how the stock moves tomorrow. If we see a drop, i like the Aprils. If the stock does not drop, the Mays are a little safer.
As I pointed out in my last post, since earnings are likely a day after expiration, we could a huge move up on the last couple of days before expiration----that may be the time to make real money.
IMO, you can't go wrong with the May options---but Aprils have greater potential especially buying in the week of expiration.

BTW-they better make room for me in their database starting tomorrow---i am going to post a lot during the day---and up until expiration.
I am done working for a while.
