Yea, it seems RMBS 15 is quite probable right now...
I've already closed two previous option and now holding May $20 calls, might have to cover once again and sell $15 calls.
Sure didn't think I would sell this many options in just one month!

Whew... I knew this baby was hot, but not THIS HOT!
(Yep, there are reason for high premium, lol)

Cut some of the losses by selling options but still a hefty loss...
(Should have bought far-out the money puts as insurance for a quarter or dime...)

Oh well, this experiment is not going too well.
Hope RMBS will last at least a year...

Dominick,
hopefully you won't mind a "PUT question".

Today at 15.45 hours RUP QQ bid and ask was .35 and .45
for 85.00 PUTS expiring today. Presently RIMM is
trading at over $ 92.00.

The risk is that RIMM will decrease in value by over
$ 7.00 in the last 15 minutes and the reward is .40.
That looks like sort of easy money to me.

Your comments are appreciated.

John
