Glenn, you bought S&P 100 calls, correct? If you believe in such things, take a look at the chart patterns of the OEX and SPX - extended left shoulder this spring, head in July and right shoulder just completed with necklines broken today. On the SPX, that would project down to about 940 for a 20% correction from the top. Personally, I'm always a bit skeptical of such things (some people manage to find H&S patterns in everything), but it's worth considering. << Bob, I see the same pattern between July 97 and Jan. 98 (not as definite) but it's there. Just something to consider too. quote.yahoo.com^SPX&d=2y

I did look at the charts but am playing a one day trade if possible. I was positive for a while but did not take profits. Now negative a bit. I was hoping for a strong market finish and still am but do not wish to hold the calls over night. Glenn
