DT,

If you don't mind, what options did you buy on the DJIA? Where are these quoted and what is the symbol? Are these the "Diamonds" I've read a little about?

Just curious. I think your timing may be good with these.

Ken

now would be a good time for those call options-imo.

my vsea earnings play for today was great.
opened at 3 1/2 and could have sold at 10 7/8.
since it was given a strong buy and target was lifted to 85, i decided to hold. plus the option has no time value.

opened a call earnings play on egov/national information-a government b2b, for next week.

my core internets are getting killed but am not going to do anything but hold them for awhile.
may even add later.

i think that strong earnings are not enough. to get a great rise in the stock you need analysts up grades and splits, etc.
