God, I don't use a chart, that's JW's job but I can tell you a critical period will be from 3 to 7 days after the split. I also hope the novice option players understand the exponential aspect of a 4 for 1 stock split on their options. YOU WILL FLAT FIND OUT WHAT YOUR SLEEP TOLERANCE IS. This will be an extremely critical period because it could get pretty crazy if the split comes close to expiration day. If this was a two for one split I would have bailed already. Nothing worse than a split with a high multiple and then try adding margin on top of that. The beauty of the 4 for 1 is that the Psychology will protect us right up to the spilt in all probability. V
