Timing.. the post appeared that way but it was a few minutes after. When you click on a new post you end up getting the 'edit' button of the previous post so I had barely a few minutes left from the previous post. It took me split seconds to understand the implications for the market and you can see that from the results of the trade. This is not the first time I've had that strategy. I picked up every other stock in anticipation as well (PVN was quite a bit before the meeting)..even posted the night before was up 11%, but the OEX I left for last. I can't help the slight disparity of the posts on the thread. I did post that there would be a 5-10 minute lag and actually its been closer to 5 than 10. If you had ignored the OEX (which gave actually ample time to enter with less profit than I got) you would have made made money with just about any other of the easier calls, especially the earnings play for June 8 +23%, the double day double digit gain with NDB +22 points in two days, the July calls on YHOO posted earlier in the morning, and COF,SWS, PHCM, MAIL etc... or since I know you follow my options the ETEK calls would have netted you an easy triple bagger. You can't have gotten them all, the OEX was the most difficult for the observer but not for me. IF you want perfection go to the ones who post gains AFTER everything has played out. Then you will find the most perfect calls, only it will be too late to do anything about them. I'm actually surprised you picked such a successful week to air such an unimportant and wholly incidental peeve.
