I starting to get the impression that IDT is like the guy in the 100 metere dash that seems to always get off a good start but seems to go before the shot actually gets off.

5,17,37,5,101,...: Rats and other options Sometimes smelly rodents can be sniffed out in the options market. If I new for a fact that a company was going to report utterly abysmal earnings I'd be buying all the near term in the money puts I could get my hands on. The open interest in May 15's is 5.6 to 1 in favor of calls. More calls traded today than puts. If I saw 1000 put contracts cross (or something like that) I'd sell my stock tomorrow. I haven't, so I'm going to stick around for the earnings report (at the very least). Warning Will Robinson: The following link is time sensitive! cboe.pcquote.com
