Lisa, premiums on the Aprils are getting raped.....When you lose that time premium those big returns and daily %swings dry up.That's why I held back.David's post are remarkable,but I am hoping David's next run/wave-up will afford us a better price AND a lot more time before expiry.The April 530 oex puts have haunted me all day...been thinking about buying...but I really don't know,even with the leverage, if the returns would be worth it even if we drop 400 pts on the dow...I am not that savy with options pricing when you''ve lost the time premium. I do think next week will have its down days,but I have no clue if you can profit much this late.Maybe I'll buy a couple or even on Mon. BWDIK? Regards, Barbara
