Mike, I agree your investment strategy is a good one. We just differ on CPQ at the moment. I wouldn't sell my CPQ in May for 27.50 plus the dollar call premium, that's all. Hoping to sell much later, much much higher. Did sell the April 80 (pre-split) call during the last run for 10+, and will get to keep it all. So selling calls after a nice run works well also.

Mike- if i do a bull put spread that results in a credit of $25,000 dollars, do i earn interest on this while it sits in my waterhouse account (money market fund)?
waterhouse says no b/c it stays in margin account and thus earns no interest.
thanks for any help you can lend. lou
