Patrick, TMC is a NYSE stock.. Trades about 150-300 a day.. (k) It actually is a large Co.. And until I get my portfolio up, all I can do is the current contract I think... How about mid to the end of July? for golf/gambling? Gotta jet, keep the discussion going.. I am reading every one..

Yea Patrick I feel the same way I have to admit - I lost my nerve today -embarrassed, shell shocked etc..I bailed before the getting got good....I bought in (luckily at the market high yesterday about 110-112 up......I figured that I had enough puts to level out a loss I was holding from the ECI day..(I know, I Know-stupid) but I figured get to 2.5 (OEWQD) and I got a rpofit for the complete bunch....when the DOW shot to 0 more/less this AM I bailed with a nice (45%) profit on the trade ----But!!!! I still have the expensive puts from the other day....... I know - no dicipline..actually - I am still playing with profit from the 27th, and had some good trades end of last week.....but I am afraid the fun (volitility) will go away before I can do as well as I have done in the past..... Great CALL & thanks for your input!!!!! Byram
