FFIV doesn't look as good on a 5 box scale. I took Carpino's advice and lightened up today. I'm thinking some dark side plays may be good here.

I'm neutral on FFIV... crude is up over a buck . we have a real problem with low inventories especially in Heating oil and Nat Gas. this may be very disruptive for the fall, and Gore will be talking about very anti-free market concepts. this could rattle wall street once or twice. I'd keep an eye on XOM it has had a multi year top area of 87 to 85 that it has never gotten through, when it does get through that resistance it could have a 15 or 20 dollar move, I was actually pricing out of the money calls on it, which is something I have not done in a few years.
