I am mostly long term on msft. But have a bit of Jan calls. That is why I am a bit short term focused now. I am aiming for it to close at 115 - 118 on Tuesday pre-earnings and then jump sharply on Wed., Thu and Friday to 125 - 130 range. I have some jan 95 & and about 20 contract of Jan 110 calls. Not a lot. I am planning to hold till expiration

"What if the stock drops to $45 right away ? Do you mean the $50 stock? One should be tracking it using level 11 data and aware of it's tick movement. If it downticks four times,and is a slow mover, if one were playing 1000 shares, hit the SELL button, taking 1/4 point loss is a general rule many traders go by. Playing a fast mover, YHOO, 100 shares is all it takes to give you a rush, which can run down 50 to 60 points in 5 minutes many traders allow a 5 point loss before bailing out
