CPQ OPTION PLAY. I don't post cpq option plays often. but, over these last cople of days I completed the spread I wanted on cpq. I bot the cpq apr 65 put for a steal while it rallied. and this morning when cpq fell to 63 I sold the apr 85 naked put on cpq for almost 22... by april I should profit that entire 22 minus what I paid for the 65 call.

JIM, at bottom..comment on dell insider selling PRETTY ASTUTE POST ON CPQ AND K6.. I have never been a proponent of cpq using amd k6 this early..I say next yr. with the .25 in a laptop but, if they got a sale maybe. hp and dec and ibm being first doesn't hurt cpq. since they do have the cyrx on the low end. stocky has things mixed up. the first cyrx isn't an amd competitor....cyrx two is...maybe stockman's beloved intel is sucking gas bec. amd and cyrx forced them to drop prices earlier than their plan. Unlike jimbo and meathead who only post negative on cpq and postive on dell. I have 100's of positve post on dell. I have another one... Dell selling stk in the compnay is a nothing.. it isn't a sign dell is tanking. I don't think M. Dell would sell shares if he had bad news. I'm postive that if cpq has insdier sales then that is bullish sign. Cpq likes to insdier sell when the news ahead is great and they will actually call you in and ask you not to sell if bad news is going to happen.. SO, THE INSIDE SELLING ON DELL DOESN'T MEAN A THING. Like I said...stockamn and jim and meathead do nothing but post without too many facts every negative on cpq they can... I'm always leary of that poster. I can ensure the thread... I CAN FIND 100'S OF DELL POSTIVE POST AND 100'S OF CPQ NEGATIVE POST AND NEGATIVES ON DELL AND POSITIVES ON CPQ. Not that I do like John K. of day trade. but, I'm not flip flopping....it's just if you are great and dell and cpq are..you can always improve. In John K's position he is analizing a day to day thing and there is positive and negatives daily. John's is not having trouble making up his mind..he's just tryng to make money daily.
