I have re-trenched... invited my oldest and youngest sons to spend 6 weeks exploring the ins and outs of day trading instead. Seemed like a good idea at the time... Meanwhile after one week the youngest is wandering Euorpe for a month instead of studying/working with us, and my eldest and I are bamboozled (at least) by the complexities and the relative insanity of blips, asks, bids, fractions, etc. I have in the lowest ebb of Friday's tide considered spending 1400 on Daytrader and getting a DTN with a dish to REALLY be able to watch the tics, as well as considering the EXECUTIONER so I could BYPASS the Market Makers entirely (at as yet an undisclosed price although I was told it would be free if we traded over 25 times per month!) I suspect getting back to options in late summer will seem like a breeze after this degree of chicanery... Thanks for inquiring! Doug
