Michael, I read through your HOT trades from April to August. Seems rather complicated. Is that why not many people bother with it? I'll take 15-19% annually for the rest of my life. Sign me up. I'll gladly pay the tax on such a return. I'm new to your thread, but I think I'm gonna like it here. Please keep posting those complicated trades. I think I can figure them out when I am sober. I printed out the HOT trades to study for tomorrow. <GG> mike

<< I'm sure there must be other folks who do this sort of thing [bear credit spreads], but danged if I have ever met them. <G> >> Michael, I do a lot of bear credit spreads...however, my gift for teaching isn't as good as my 'gift' for picking stocks to enter spread positions. I could really use a good link or two to explain this strategy better to people that visit my web site. Do you know of any sites that spell out the details of credit spreads from A to Z? Thanks, Eric
