Jill, Jim, and Volts, Thanks for the feedback. If you were to buy RNWK CC's, which do you think would be perhaps a wise bet. (This happens to be the part of options, that I'm the most unclear about...) <snip> DESCRIPTION LAST BID ASK CHG HIGH LOW VOL OI SYM C APR00 60.000 15 7/8 14 5/8 15 5/8 +2 7/8 16 13 3/4 24 21 RNWDL C APR00 65.000 12 7/8 12 3/8 12 3/4 +2 7/8 12 7/8 12 1/8 21 18 RNODM C APR00 70.000 10 1/8 10 10 3/8 +2 1/8 11 8 7/8 33 79 RNODN C APR00 75.000 8 1/2 7 1/4 8 1/4 +2 7/8 8 1/4 7 5/8 54 99 RNODO C APR00 80.000 6 5/8 6 1/8 6 5/8 +1 7/8 7 1/2 6 82 433 RNODP C APR00 85.000 5 1/8 4 5/8 5 1/8 +1 3/4 5 1/4 4 36 72 RNODQ C APR00 90.000 4 3 5/8 4 1/8 +3/4 4 1/2 3 5/8 37 129 RNODR C APR00 95.000 3 1/4 2 11/16 3 1/8 +1/4 3 1/4 3 30 36 RNODS C APR00 100.000 2 5/16 2 1/16 2 9/16 +9/16 2 11/16 2 5/16 50 354 RNODT C APR00 105.000 2 1/4 1 9/16 2 1/16+1 1/16 2 1/4 1 13/16 7 14 RNODA C APR00 110.000 1 11/16 1 3/16 1 9/16 +3/4 1 3/4 1 5/16 117 154 RNODB C MAY00 37.500 38 1/4 27 5/8 29 1/8 0 0 0 0 180 RNWEU C MAY00 40.000 32 31 32 1/2 -1/4 32 32 10 150 RNWEH C MAY00 42.500 0 23 5/8 25 1/8 0 0 0 0 44 RNWEV C MAY00 45.000 35 21 5/8 23 1/8 0 0 0 0 132 RNWEI C MAY00 47.500 0 20 1/8 21 3/8 0 0 0 0 22 RNWEW C MAY00 50.000 22 1/8 18 3/8 19 5/8 0 0 0 0 285 RNWEJ C MAY00 52.500 0 16 7/8 18 1/8 0 0 0 0 110 RNWEX C MAY00 55.000 23 3/4 15 5/8 16 7/8 0 0 0 0 157 RNWEK C MAY00 57.500 19 1/2 18 1/8 19 5/8+19 1/2 19 1/2 19 1/2 15 392 RNWEY C MAY00 60.000 17 3/8 16 5/8 18 1/8 +2 1/4 18 5/8 17 1/8 42 425 RNWEL C MAY00 62.500 16 1/8 15 3/8 16 5/8 -2 7/8 16 1/8 16 1/8 3 86 RNOEG C MAY00 65.000 15 3/4 14 1/8 15 3/8 +3 15 1/4 14 3/8 16 307 RNOEM C MAY00 67.500 27 1/4 10 1/8 10 5/8 0 0 0 0 67 RNOEH C MAY00 70.000 13 1/4 12 13 1/4 +2 1/2 13 3/8 12 3/8 73 369 RNOEN C MAY00 72.500 11 3/8 8 3/8 8 7/8 0 0 0 0 37 RNOEV C MAY00 75.000 10 1/2 10 1/8 10 5/8 +2 1/2 10 5/8 10 18 1183 RNOEO C MAY00 77.500 8 7/8 6 3/4 7 1/4 0 0 0 0 82 RNOEW C MAY00 80.000 9 1/2 8 1/8 9 1/8 +3 8 1/4 8 1/4 3 220 RNOEP C MAY00 82.500 8 5 1/2 6 0 0 0 0 35 RNOEX C MAY00 85.000 7 3/4 7 8 +2 7 3/4 7 1/8 25 207 RNOEQ C MAY00 87.500 5 7/8 6 3/8 6 7/8 -7/8 5 7/8 5 7/8 6 92 RNOEY C MAY00 90.000 5 5 3/4 6 1/4 -1/2 5 5 5 1222 RNOER C MAY00 92.500 5 1/4 3 1/2 4 0 0 0 0 785 RNOEZ C MAY00 95.000 4 7/8 3 1/2 3 3/4 0 0 0 0 194 RNOES C MAY00 97.500 0 2 15/16 3 3/8 0 0 0 0 126 RNOEU C MAY00 100.000 3 3/4 3 3/4 4 1/4 +3/4 3 3/4 3 3/4 4 2497 RNOET C MAY00 105.000 3 3/4 2 1/16 2 9/16 0 0 0 0 14 RNOEA C MAY00 110.000 2 1/16 1 15/16 2 1/8 0 0 0 0 127 RNOEB C AUG00 40.000 30 3/4 28 5/8 30 1/8 0 0 0 0 5 RNWHH C AUG00 42.500 0 27 28 1/2 0 0 0 0 0 RNWHV C AUG00 45.000 30 1/4 25 1/2 27 0 0 0 0 30 RNWHI C AUG00 47.500 29 28 5/8 30 3/8-13 3/8 29 29 4 4 RNWHW C AUG00 50.000 30 27 28 3/4 +4 1/2 30 30 5 143 RNWHJ C AUG00 52.500 0 21 1/4 22 3/4 0 0 0 0 0 RNWHX C AUG00 55.000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 RNOHK C AUG00 55.000 36 1/8 20 1/8 21 3/8 0 0 0 0 188 RNWHK C AUG00 57.500 22 5/8 18 7/8 20 1/8 0 0 0 0 50 RNWHY C AUG00 60.000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 RNOHL C AUG00 60.000 20 17 7/8 19 1/8 0 0 0 0 245 RNWHL C AUG00 62.500 22 1/4 16 7/8 18 1/8 0 0 0 0 326 RNOHG C AUG00 65.000 19 1/8 19 3/8 20 5/8 -7/8 19 1/8 19 1/8 1 120 RNOHM C AUG00 67.500 18 15 16 0 0 0 0 32 RNOHH C AUG00 70.000 19 1/2 17 1/4 18 1/2 +3 18 1/4 18 1/4 6 104 RNOHN C AUG00 72.500 17 1/2 13 1/4 14 1/4 0 0 0 0 45 RNOHV C AUG00 75.000 17 1/2 15 1/2 16 3/4 +3 1/2 17 1/2 17 1/2 1 181 RNOHO C AUG00 77.500 0 11 7/8 12 7/8 0 0 0 0 10 RNOHW C AUG00 80.000 14 14 14 7/8 +2 14 14 5 193 RNOHP C AUG00 82.500 20 1/2 10 1/2 11 1/2 0 0 0 0 100 RNOHX C AUG00 85.000 12 12 1/8 13 3/8 -1/2 12 7/8 12 12 56 RNOHQ C AUG00 87.500 17 9 3/8 9 7/8 0 0 0 0 28 RNOHY C AUG00 90.000 12 10 7/8 11 7/8 +2 5/8 12 1/4 12 26 222 RNOHR C AUG00 92.500 12 7/8 8 1/2 9 0 0 0 0 122 RNOHZ C AUG00 95.000 10 9 3/4 10 3/4 -1 7/8 10 10 6 43 RNOHS C AUG00 97.500 10 7 5/8 8 1/8 0 0 0 0 48 RNOHU C AUG00 100.000 10 8 3/4 9 3/4 +1 5/8 10 10 2 703 RNOHT C AUG00 105.000 0 6 3/8 6 7/8 0 0 0 0 0 RNOHA </snip> What do you think about May 60's - 75's? Is it best to avoid April's because of the possible sell off due to taxes... Do you see better selections than May 60's - 75's? Would I probably be better off, simply buying stock in RNWK, wait until it reaches the top trendline (near earnings time) and then write calls against those shares? All opinions appreciated. -Clapton P.S. Jill thanks for showing me the William's Indicator. I was never sure as to what that one does. Now I do. The "Ultimate Oscillator" is another one. What does that one show? Sure has a cool name though... :^) I hear it's the Ultimate in Oscillation! P.P.S. Sorry for the formatting of this post. I didn't know how else to print the Options stuff...
