Near Term Strategy for CSCO.....

Having bought some CSCO yesterday at 17.25...here is the follow up plan.

The tech market has been oversold for the past week and a relief rally is due.

Rather than sell at a small gain, I intend to wait until the Fed makes a decision next Tuesday or Wednesday.

The sell range should be somewhere between 18.75 and 19.25....

At this point the psychology of the market is more important than any numerical quantifier.

This plan is subject to change on short notice. (and I will post the change).

A second part of this plan is to sell some covered calls on CSCO at the 20 strike for the month of SEPT. for a minimum of at least one. This would imply that CSCO rises to 19 in the next few trading days.

Regards, Jerome

Leap Players may wish to look at the Jan 2003, 15 strike leaps at about 6.

Ed,

Do you know of any source for a realtime futures reading. The CME site only updates about every 10 minutes, and watching that today has been a fairly accurate market direction indicator.knc

I've been pretty busy this summer with projects on the houses and playing with my new DSL.

Speed is addicting!

I'm getting a kick out of the discussion on commodities.

When are people going to learn not to play with gold and silver.

We have a glut of those things!
