Hi Herm, Sorry to bug you, but I could use a little advise. The HMTT calls that I sold at 1 3/8 are down to 1, but it doesn't look like HMTT is going down any farther on a very bad market day. I have a GTC to buy back the calls at 7/8. If it were you would you a) Cancel the order & buy them back at 1 b) Wait for the calls to drop to 7/8 c) Or just wait until next week to do anything? Thanks, JoAnn

Herm, yesterday, the maket goes up...VVUS goes down. Today, the market goes dowwwwwwwwwwwwwn and VVUS goes up.....a little! Do you still say there is no corelation. The reason VVUS went up is that there was no "good "news about it. Tony D.

Hi Herm. Thank you for the thread. They say you can"t teach an old dog new tricks, but I'm trying to learn. In your post 5594 to Gary McBride, you mentioned setting the Bollinger Bands to 10 & 20 day moving average. Also plotting the RSI to 10 & 20 day. I can"t find the chart that will let me preset the days. I have used the IQ chart(CGI version) with Candlesticks, Bollinger Bands, RSI, and Stochastics but they seem to be preset(unknown to me). Could you tell me what charts you are using? Any help you could give me would be appreciated.
