Hi Herm,

Yep I'm still around and writing some calls now and then. Last week I followed your advice on CPQ and wrote 5 Oct. 37.5 @2 1/8 dropping my cost basis to 30. Today the calls ended @.81. You pointed to insider selling and other data and also advised the Oct. 30 puts. Too bad I didn't follow up with the sideshow.

Thanks

Roger

Herm,

What do you think of the TLAB news..? Down 6+ today. Have we seen the bottom in reaction to the CIEN takeover..?

Bob

Down goes CSCO and up (1.75) goes those cheap PUTs. From 1 1/2 to 2.80 in one day! Wow! Gravy train for some and real $ pain for others!
