Thanks Dan. Although I've traded stocks for a number of years, and futures for a couple of years, I have little experience with options, beyond buying calls/puts to trade a setup in the underlying. It strikes me, that unless one runs OptionVue, or some similarly powerful package, there is much leg work to putting together a winning strategy, even if one nails the underlying move. Entry is everything, and if there is one fault with my options trading at this point, it's that I do not pass on situations where the options are overpriced. Good thread you folks have going here. Cheers, Allan
