Henry, Digitals don't sound like my sort of game. I prefer trifectas at the track. Too bad I didn't know about quantos. About a month ago I unwound a losing long Kraut bonds, short Yank bonds spread in my income account. Quantos would have given me the chance to lose the same money a different way. <G> That was the first significant loss I've suffered in my income portfolio in 14 years, so I don't feel too bad. But, as opposed to cap gain plays, with income trades I don't fold my arms and jut out my chin like Mussolini and wait for the market to wise up. -g- MB
