Creaf has bottomed? Herm, what are you looking at?!? On StockWizard, with BB set to 20/2, Creaf touched the upper band yesterday at $20. RSI (14 day) was at 66.5, which is about the same peak it reached in early January when it turned at $22. I wrote Mar 20 calls on my holdings last week (nut of $24.07) in the hopes of a dip back to $17.50 or so. Yesterday I bought some more shares at $20 and immediately wrote Apr 22.5 calls on them. That block will profit even if I don't get a chance to dippity-do, unlike the first block. By December I'm hoping to see $30+, but for now I'm trying to reduce my nut. We're in the weak half of the year, which should keep a lid on the price for a while. Doug.
