hpeace, I would like some information on how I can get approved to sell puts so I may try your bps. I've traded in cc's for about 1 year and agree that it is much riskier than selling the puts. I have a very small portfolio to work with and think I can leverage my funds better with your technique. Any suggestions as to what I should do or whom I should contact? Thank you, Lonny

steve, you've been pretty quiet lately. The market looks kind of weak and tired these days. CPQ is in a funk. I thought that it might take them longer than they expected to integrate DEC into their system and it looks like that is happening. When do you think CPQ will recover in price? Any leaps look good to you here? Any other companies you like? I'm just watching these days as not much looks cheap to me here so I'm kind of paralyzed by indecision.
