Greetings,

Not Unc. Frank or Andrew, but I have been selling CC's April 50's for a while. Today I sold for $1.80 but the stock kept going up. I've been able to cover in just a few days in the past. We'll see if that holds true this time. I hate going out longer on QCOM because there's always that 100 pt. jump waiting for us <g>. QCOM headbanger since 1998.

Tony

>> For the 55, 57.50, and 60 strikes the premium gets a lot better as you go out in time, not the normal state of affairs as I recall.

I wouldn't read too much into it, Alan. I think that's normal with OOTM calls, because the premium for the first month drops so rapidly once it's inside a full month.
