Ok, let's call it "Quasimodo"...what's the symbol for the Oct 2000 call contract? You know why I'm very interested in this? Last Jan (this year), I bought 2 of the 2001 leap with 170 strike, as my strategy to fully profit from AOL splits...and now have 4 contracts with the strike halved to 85, which is too deep in the money!!! My exit plan is after two more splits (inshallah), before expiration. What's your exit plan? Take care and good luck...//dom

AOL has been quite a ride with ~$130K lift last week.. got lucky and picked up some Apr $140 calls today with an opening order at $2 (now $5+) and invested in another 150 AOL shares later @127. What's your general accumulation approach? load at once or over days? buy at opening vs. waiting/watching? Thanks, Orlando
