FPAM is a strange one. It meets estimates, the management PR is totally bland, and the stock drops six bucks. I made .50$ daytrading it on Friday, but something is going on here that I don't understand. I wasn't aware of the hi implied volatility on the options. Thanks for the heads up, but what does it mean???

Another one to watch is ADVH. Great intraday volatility, in the last five days. I bought it at 16.75 on Friday afternoon, but what's going on?

AT.. Great Idea. checking oi and v on option calls for April. I'll be checking FA and TA on these companies as well as earnings date. Thanks for providing me with yet another good idea in maximizing our chance to filter out the best earnings plays. I've got TLDCF in my long term together with ELNK..I'm wondering if I should add SEEK>
