t2 I'm curious about one thing: open interest and volume when you buy options on the cheap. I was trading in and out of NTAP calls when the common was oscillating between 48-70, and the options went from 1 5/8 to about 9 or so. However, if you bought a huge amount, how do you unload them? How much do you get scalped by the MM because then you are literally making the market. Any experience with this? Do you unload them in stages? Or exercise and sell?

if my MSFT plan works out.<g>
Still waiting to initiate a big position on cheap cheap options (1/16 to 1/4 range)

Cheap msft options? I have vague memories of getting f*d on those by someone wearing a Janet Reno mask <g> And it felt about as good as she looks.
