You said you were a straddler at least twice, do you want the reply numbers

Gene

can you read

I am just shaking my head

I had someone who has read this thread for a long time write me privately and say there are some of you old time members that are "#$^#     @#%@%"

If seems some of you cant look objectively at both sides and understand that looking at the negatives is MORE
important if you are long than looking at the positives...and vice versa if you are short

from me:

Being a straddler is not demeaning and can make ALOT of money

take a look at the volatility of the S&P 500 index

believe me, you do not achieve your goal by calling me a straddler.


where do you get from this that I say I am not a straddler.

I straddle, I strangle, I buy, I do bull put spreads, I do bear credit spreads... I look at it all

The meaning here is that you are not insulting me as was your goal by calling me a straddler because a straddler can make alot of money......

especially in a stock that is volatile....like these in this sector...
