Hi Volty... Even if you get called away on ELON that's not so bad, is it? You keep the premium. What strike did you write the calls, and what price did you buy in at? What do you think of premiums on AFFX? It's a biotech--a good one actually, as it makes the chips necessary for gene therapy research; it's really volatile, just broke out to new highs and will likely retrace. Premiums are really rich. I probably will write puts as soon as it retraces a bit--I almost did before. But call premiums are nice too, if you want to buy enough to write them.

SHORT UPDATE 03/05/00 RealNetworks - RNWK $70.19 (-8.19) Unfortunately, RNWK managed to gain ground Friday with the rest of the sector. RNWK started the session Friday with a steep pullback before making a strong recovery rally. This stock is still trading below its 50-dma of $75.60, which helps show its readings are still bearish. Friday, proved to be a day almost no Tech stock could lose on, unless your name is Palm, and your trading 3 times above where you should be, but then again isn't every Tech. RNWK set a good resistance at its 5-dma of $72 on Friday, which it managed to bounce off twice, before ending below at $70.19. RNWK looks great on another bounce off this level, but if it breaks $69 we could see it back down at Friday's low of $65, which could prove to be a good play on speculation of a support break through. If RNWK gets swept away with the Market again, look to exit if it goes above its 10-dma at $76.50, we should however, see some resistance at its 50-dma of $75.60 first. It's hard to play a short position in this Market, so to be on the safe side always have your stops set. Picked on Feb 29th at $70.31 Change since picked -0.12 Earnings Date 04/25 (Not Confirmed) OPTOIONINVESTOR
