Yes - buying Junes because of decay - and because I'm still a little unsure of myself - and the OEX moves... not quite in the groove

Chose the strikes for different reasons:
1) close to monies- calls and puts - hoping for a good move quickly- snapbacks, rebounds ,AND where there was high open interest and volume the day before

2)OEZRJ - close to the 200DMA.. and with a June , may have time to get there... again , high OI and vol yesterday

I had a good plan but just not quite fast enough executing sometimes.

In the end, I bought the OEZFR calls @ 15 and 16 - now underwater on those... bought again at 13... and have a LO in at 12 1/4

also bought the OEZRJ puts @ 10 7/8 - sold @ 12 1/2 and 13

soooo... bring on that rally ! Cramer and I are waiting
