You know what really ticks me off about all this? While I was trying to work my way out they started a high stakes gin game and I missed out. I hate when that happens. Now I have to go back tonight and see if there are any bodies left I can play against. What really sticks is I have to find someone who can get my nephew out of this stupid investment his Mother in law is in....he started this. I should charge him a commission. Have you ever heard of this? He interrupted me during trading to tell me his Mother in Law would get a 10% fine for removing her money before allowing them to have it for 5 years. When did this crap come up and why do they target old people? I MEAN, LET ME RANT FOR A GODDAMN SECOND!!!! IT'S OKAY TO FOUL UP A SENIOR CITIZEN, whose moose son-in-law fouls up my day....WHILE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT RIP OFF ARTIST ON SI GETS HIS OWN FREAKIN' WSJ COLUMN????? msnbc.com And, my reply......

Hi Bob--most of my specific trades that I post have to do with the futures whether short or long. I do sometimes post about OEX options that I write -- but these are more in the nature of position trades which I hold for days if not weeks. One of the things to keep in mind in utilizing my entry and exit points -- or that of anyone else -- is to relate it to the time frame involved in the trade. Most option players who play the long side, would probably be working with holding positions for several days -- and the entry and exit points for day trading would be of limited use. Hope that you understand my point. Regards
