lisa, about vix & premiums, was wondering if you only use SPX puts for the downside play. have you analyzed other alternative index options? i'm thinking that the lesser known indexes might have less premium. i've looked at OEX, SPX, DJX, MSH, IIX and believe that the IIX (Amex Internet index) might be the most reasonably priced, but still have the highest volatility. This might be the best play since these high fliers are already under heavy attack. The next big drop will kill 'em. tim

Coug...(I couldnt post to you because I kept getting that stupid requested page notfound) Lisa, I run into that glitch from time to time as well. You can get around it by turning off the "Preview" feature when you submit your response or PM. Have a good weekend, NorthStar
