Nice trade, bw Put a limit order in to sell 15 aug 35 calls at 4 (ok, so I was fantsizing!!) Changed it at 9:40 to 2-7/8. Sat there while some trades went through at 2-15/16 and 3; so I called Schwab at 10, they looked into it, and magically 2 minutes later I was filled at 3. So, either confirmation was delayed or Schwab convinced somebody i was owed. Either way, I'm pleased and now CPQ can move down to 35? for option expiration. I am now running 20 37.5s long against 20 25s short (all aug calls). Mike
