Tks for the info, Dick -

I talked with them today and was my impression was that they had a good company and knew what they were doing - unlike WebStreet in which a broker didn't even know what a LEAP was! :)

Another question - do you use any of the options analytical software - OPTIONSTAR, OPTIONVIEW, OPTIONPRO - there are a bunch out there?

A couple of them look good - for the price, OPTIONSTAR looks to be head and shoulders above the others and it is by far the cheapest.

Herm said the free goodies under Webbs site would do the same thing but I just don't see the same degree of programs there. One of the problems I have is knowing which of the programs to download - there are about 15 of them and apparently they are just updates of the basic ones he put up a long time ago. Problem is, WHICH is the one to use now?

The optionstar program is very complex - you have to work your way to the last part of it to fine it but you can get all the info on some 37 or so different possibilities - from straight stock purchase to shorting the stock - with all the odds, percents, profits, etc. listed for each - - seems to me to be a very powerful tool.

I would like to find something to help me as my poor brain just can't keep up with all that is in options trading it seems. The more I learn, the more I like it but they are very complex.

Oh, well - just keep plugging along, I guess! :)

Again, tks - and have a good day tomorrow.
