Hi Bonnie, I just read your post to Robwin and appreciate your RE update a great deal. Yes, I'm home and suffering from a bout of the flu, I'm afraid, which hasn't kept me from hunching over this damned keyboard all morning. <g>. Market thoughts: L3 posted some interesting thoughts last night on the Options Box. I respect his TA enormously, as I do Don Sew's. I think we'll see some nastiness at the open tomorrow (nastiness for longs, anyway,) followed by some buying into the FOMC meeting (2:30 EST on Tuesday). From what I've been reading, I don't think AG will do anything but loosen the bias this time. No rate cut, IMO, will mean further selling. Adding to this is the weakening of the dollar, which does not bode well for stocks. I think your plans to trade puts on the QQQ and select Naz stocks is very very sound. PS: I generally post interesting articles about the market, as well as snippets from the Hahn site and the weekly Option Investor newsletter on the Options Box on Sunday afternoons. I'll try to do that today. i'd certainly look forward to other people's market views as well.
