Victor, yes I did, And I'm still waiting for the run-up. I look for a run-up somewhere in the two week period before earnings release. So, imho, it's still a little early. I was glad to see this rise to 32 so soon and was hoping for yet a pre-earnings run-up which, given the 32 (as of yesterday) would result in a price of around 34 - 35. What I did not anticipate was this early run-up to 32. I expected cpq to drift around 27 - 28 until 2 or 3 weeks before earnings and then spike to about 32. But since then i sold the april 32.50 calls which I was hoping would result in cpq being called away from me right before earnings release.
