They haven't been modified. I trade them all the time during the day. I tried options with some of TC's earlier picks when I was still a lurker. I didn't get enough movement all the time to make them pay. Plus, I was using ETrade, which soaked up alot of the gains. But even with IB, I've found the actual stock yields more value. I like options primarily on the broader indexes. BTW, about your earlier post...I don't know how I stumbled onto TC's thread. It was sometime back in December or so. I lurked for a month or two, then started posting occasionally as I picked up on the systems. Still not well versed in the BFTT concept (at least for picking stocks), and I've traded on my own for so long, I've grown skittish to the point of protecting every penny. So the patience thing is something I need to redevelop. That said, I think you guys have done a wonderful job here. Not only have you developed profitable methods, but you're kind enough to loop in other people...and hold hands from time to time. TC has taught me quite about trading well, and the two of you have introduced me to some things I'd never known before (DIA, OEX, etc). Thank you both immensely. I still owe TC the PayPal money, and will try to clean that mess up tomorrow. I have to set up my MRI (torn meniscus) first.
