>>? It looks manipulated to take out smaller players with huge swings to cause people to bail<< Bingo!!!! You are very bright <ggg> As for reading, there really is no difference other than what I told you about no stop losses. You can check out the CBOE website as they have a lot of info but I would just paper trade for a while. As for limit or gap down opens, the options will clean you out just like futures. No differences, a price gap is a price gap. One other difference is premium erosion is faster on the highly volatile options like OEX. Best to trade short term rather than position trading IMO but that is just me. Good Luck, Lee
