RealCommentary from TheStreet.com Here's How to Play Tech Now Wednesday April 16, 9:18 am ET By James J. Cramer, You sell the common in tech. That's what you do. Maybe even at the opening. I'm talking about trades like the IBM (NYSE:IBM - News) April 80 calls that I suggested buying for a buck and change yesterday. You sell the common stock of IBM short against it right here and then you play it out. If the stock keeps going up, you've booked a super trade. If the sky falls in, you have a delicious two-day short. Not bad.
