LastShadow, I have been playing AVEI today and wondering why it didn't move better on such good news. Then I ventured over to the CBOE and checked out the Options Strike Prices on a hunch. There is was in great big print APRIL 37.5. This was about an hour before the close with AVEI at 38. I guessed that somehow AVEI would close at 37.5 and what do you know strangely enough it drifted down to finish the day at 37 9/16. Anyway There was a lot of open interest in those calls and I decided to hold AVEI because I think it will really move next week . Question. Who do you use for trading? I use Schwab but I pay 29.95 each way and three cents a share over 1000 shares. I usually trade a lot more than a thousand shares at a time and the commissions are killing me. I feel like I get good fills and get great service but would go somewhere else to save money if I thought I would get equal treatment. What do you do and who do you recommend? Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Later, Richard
