Profitable day in the AM, not so hot in the PM, took a small loss on an attempt to ride QCOM, and the intended rider (me) became ridden by the gang of lunatics -gg-

Opened a new short put on EMC March 35, as I tried to take a small profit, it reversed and could not. Maybe tomorrow in the AM as time decay beginning to accelerate...

ADBE keeps giving me the fits.. I am sweating this one, but I am being patient.

Increased on XTO short puts (April this time) and added WGR short puts April

NE & XTO broke 52 week highs.

After the AM it was kind of a sleepy day....

Hi, Poet! Question: why is the QQQ via CBOE significant?

Options have been traded on QQQ, to my knowledge, for at least two years, although I recently began myself.

I read of many trades in summer/fall '98 posted by options traders back then.

Why is this significant?

'b-i-a'
