Wayne, is the NASDAQ 20 MDA at 1700? Isn't it possible that it goes below this? What if HK depegs from the $? How can that be factored in? If there is no depeg, then the dollar/yen will go to 150, and who knows how much of this Asia can take. Things might work out, but I would think that some people want to wait and see a few days to a week. I'm also wondering if we've seen true signs of a bottom. I get the feeling that we haven't. I don't think people are going to want to hold anything over this weekend, with world events as they are. Accumulate, yes. Expect a rebound in next 2 days,....I wonder.... j

I'm In LONG! I just sold off some of my short term stock positions for only a small loss (if you can believe it) so that I could buy 40 Jan 99 calls with a strike of $32.5. I was tempted to sell off my ADTN calls that I bought 2 days ago but I couldn't when I saw that it is actually up in this market environment.....Anyway.... I got in at $1 7/16 which is where I wanted to buy the first time we were at this level (a couple weeks ago) but I didn't have the b*lls then. I'm hoping we close at or above $24 today. If not then I still have 8 months of time left and if we test $27.5 resistance again relatively soon (before earnings)I may sell off half my position for a quick profit and if possible buy again on any weakness from there. I was waiting for this retest of $24 but I thought yesterday was close enough but luckily my day order at the bid didn't go through. The overall market weakness has enabled us to get a second chance at this price level. Hopefully after the market adjusts we will be back in the high $20's and beyond. BTW I probably would have never had the patience to get in at this price if it weren't for losing my shirt (and my hair) as I rode down ASND to it's depths 6 months ago. I may be dead wrong but I think we will be going up from this double bottom. Regards Brad
