Hi Tom I hope I do not sound to ignorant asking this but other than cost(margin considerations), what is your reason for using oex instead of spx options when entering into naked positions? My thought is that the spx is European as opposed to american style. thank you in advance. kiwi

FWIW- to anyone interested bought oexmk @ 10.625. Have a stop at oex 465. Jumped the gun just a bit because of 2 things 1) Ralph A. comments (or rumor of)2)TT sell signal. Would have waited for oex to break channel line at 455 but we shall see.
