Herm, I'm taking a more conservative CC approach for '98.
I was called out of DELL Saturday and rolled into block shares
of MAVK and CREAF. I immediately wrote 100% contracts (left
no shares free) of the April $22.5's for MAVK and the April
$20's for CREAF. My average return - if called out - is about
21%, if not called out its about 15% - or 5-7%/month. This
approach won't make me rich overnight, but it makes sense.

VVUS Bollinger bands close together also mean low volatility, which
translates to low preemies. Typically, though, this is a
precursor to rapidly expanding volatility. I hope today's
move (up nearly 2) indicates the direction of the volatile
movement! I'm looking for a ride here into CC ozone. But I'm
damn well not neglecting protective puts on the downside (ouch!).
