Sure you guys don't want to do some REALLY REALLY LT thinking here and extend the contest to coincide with the settlement of the May OSX contracts which would be the opening price of the OSX on Friday the 18th? This will enable people to put some real dough behind their opinions rather than this funny money stuff.<ggg> I just sold 10 OSX 120 calls for 5 bucks. Breakeven is 125. For each point above that at settlement, I lose $1000. If it closes below 120, I pocket 5 grand. Each point it closes above 120 but below 125 reduces profit by $1000. Seems like everyone is more concerned with gas prices so shouldn't we also have a contest on the XNG? I'm trying to sell some May 240 calls but the a-hole at the AMEX won't budge off the bid. John
