Perry, I have been beaten up pretty badly in the past 4 weeks (who hasn't). I actually sold out all of my positions in Aware on Tuesday morning while it was still up $1, before the 500+ point plunge. I felt really good about that, seeing as how I'd timed it well. Then the market came back, and the stock ended up Tuesday over $3. That was really hard to take, particularly because the last conference AWRE was in did nothing to help the stock, which continued to tank through the last 4 weeks. I took that as a sign, and yesterday morning, used all of the buying power I had left and sunk it into 30 May 40 calls. Got 20 of them at 6 5/8 (the other 10 at 8.125) and they're over 11.5, so I'm up some, and will probably try and get some more here in the next day or so. The only problem is that I'll have to liquidate some AMGN calls to do it, and the promise is almost as bright there as it is here. jess.
