Herm, all,

Well, I put in a buy order on the NOVL Aug 25 puts a couple times at 1/2, even when the bid was at 9/16 :) Finally I got hit on a runup, now I'm hoping for a pullback. Stochastics, RSI, OBV are all about to burst out the top of the charts, it CAN'T maintain this level. It is worrying me though, because it's sitting steady, and I'm hoping it hasn't hit a new trading level. Any thoughts? I'd like to make a little money on my puts, because my NUT of about 21 now doesn't seem to be an issue with downside protection. I might have to just take my profits and move on, it's runup too much to roll up.
On another note, I was hoping for some advice on BTGC. Seems like a good cheap CC stock. I was thinking about picking up some shares. It's up a little bit this morning, but it looks due for a pullback. What do you think is a good entry price, about $7.00? The $7.50 strike seems to be a good return. WOuld you throw out WINS for the entry and grab it now? Thanks...

Ryan

Is anybody familiar with the details of the Nabisco spinoff? If I had 300 shs of RN and a CC of Sep 30 I should have received 300 shs of NGH and 100 shs RJR. But what happens with the calls?
