Jill, I act fast. I took a hard look at the RUT chart and bought Mar ITM puts thinking we're due for a pullback in the next few weeks. I'm thrilled about my CREE call sale, as I hit the high of the day. I like CREE a lot and have the common, but these calls were bought on Monday and ran so quickly that I thought I'd take the $41k profit and wait for the stock to calm down before I reenter. These were DIM calls and they really gave me a lot of "bang for the buck" when CREE ran. I've learned to buy deep in the money and to take profits when I have them. Tough lessons learned from QCOM last month.
