Hi Poet,

I'm glad you found this thread. I'm sure your experience is what would be valued here. I have been busy with various things this weekend including house work and haven't been able to do my homework yet. The futures market just opened and I'm watching closely to see if I want to enter a trade.

I would appreciate your opinion of the yahoo option tools I linked below. Until I brush up more and educate myself to how best to use them I could use any useful tips or suggestions you may have about the proper use of them. I am always looking for momentum, reversals from oversold over bought situations. I usually like to buy options after expiration. I am usually overwhelmed when the market makes a turn to make trades in futures and a few stocks in front of me. As you know nothing happens then everyone piles on. When I would trade options this was always the best time for me to make the trade, as a stock trades on support during lows of the day and wait for the EOD rally to close position. I know you usually take to longer view in your trading strategies.

I was particularly intrigued by the yahoo options analysis tool that ranked trades by risk,ratios,greeks,sv&IV then listed probable return, odds, days to expiry, etc.

Hi Poet,

need your opinion, I love Citigroup but think it needs a retracement here? I see more positive comments on it today.

Was looking @ C Oct42.5 p @ 1.8

too risky going against the trend?

Thinking about CCMP calls..Oct.45c 4.20 seem expensive?
