Jim,

I THINK today (Friday) will be the peak of the relief rally although I could be wrong... If my indicators break-through at this point, we could be in for some more upside... possibly a retest of DOW 30 highs.

I am looking for 2 down days on those indicators to tell me to buy puts. My DIS straddle expires today worthless. <sigh>

BWDIK?

Bill

TO ALL; Would suggest to the SI participants to trade treasury strips.

For example most strips gained over 4 1/4% yesterday.

The 2029 strip from $172.5 to $181 or around $7.5 per bond.

(yes I know it can go the other way too, then just short them <G>)

Quite substantial swings with the principal guarantied by Uncle Sam and up 1 to 10 leverage. (Well would not suggest this one)

Commision are very small (less than $40) or even free with some online outfits.
