MB,

I am not very well versed on IRA rules, but I always thought that IRAs forbid you from playing options? Please enlighten me. If I can find an IRA that allows option plays I will be in heaven.

<< I am much more positive>>
looks like you can afford to be more positive and more negative at same time -g-

For you reading pleasure:

<<At this awful words we shuddered,
And the stoutest bull grew sick;
While the brokers cried "More margin!",
And the ticker ceased to tick.>>

Michael or anyone? could you please explain this position & how it generates income (if it does); also how you establish it - do you buy them all at once or buy parts on up/down days.

Thanks
Bruce Taylor
