Yeah your option split.....

you have double now of a different strike because it split 2 for 1....
just call your broker to get the details...

when they do a 5 for 3 or something like odd like that..they increase the shares it covers on the same strike...at least that is what happen to me on CPQ

TIm...stinging like a bee doesnt even cover it...

TW: I see the flag (5 min charts) trying to form on the IND, SPX ,NYA and OEX. I
usually check out more than one indice to confirm. Flags/Pennants usually break in the
direction of the trend.

I see one big problem...NASDAQ...has no pole..just one big gap! This troubles me! I
would expect it to be filled. <g>

You should note, the 60 min charts, IND, SPX, NYA, SPX, OEX and COMP show
the possible conversion of the pennants to flags. If these formations hold, they should
break in context with the current overall down trend!

However, if the five minutes flags break to the upside, with more than just a violation,
this would invalidate the 60 minutes charts. And, should confirm further upside
movement, at least short term.

Trey,

They do "split", as new strikes are created from half the value of the existing call/put.
