<new portfolio, "2000", initiated.......>Interesting picks. CMDX, I have a friend who started there in December and his options are already up 1000%. The pain.... Commissions, why sweat them? On Ameritrade you get 8 buck trades; Scott its $7 I think for as many shares as you want. For any reasonable position, say $1000-10,000 this amounts to less than a percent on the position. BTW you might consider selling puts on the stuff you really like and wouldn't mind buying cheaper. Adds a little "bonus". RWR
