Hi Herm, I'm the one with the horror stories about Bernie. A situation I'd like to discuss with you is about CPQ again. I closed out(too soon) my sept 35 puts and made some money. I then bought sept 27 1/2 puts when the stock was 28 1/2 and paid 1 7/8.(too much)From what I've been hearing and reading, The Market and CPQ might Rally Tuesday morning and maybe close down. Who knows. Would it be smart to buy some Oct 30 Calls just in case, or would that be throwing good money after bad? I also have GVA Sept 22 1/2 puts and XIRC Sept 15 puts. I doubt if there's enough time left to NOT lose money. Thanks Johndee
