Jill, I'll take that segue and raise ya. :) I'd had a GTC buy order in on the CREE Mar 50 calls, which hit at EOD during the CREE selloff. I'm delighted! For new options traders, setting a limit order at a "fantasy" number is not a bad idea. You never know when a strong stock will succumb to brief profit-taking.

Just had a discussion with LoF on what to do with DIM CREE June 85s. He suggested, and I agree, that selling half and using the proceeds to exercise the other half is a good idea. Any thoughts? Message 12813380 P.S. About food, I bought some Corning today to go with my JDSU.
