Much appreciated.

Especially the real-time aspect. The CBOE started working OK, but it's 20 or 30 minutes behind--though still that give you some notion of what the market-makers are doing.

Not that I BELIEVE in this kind of gambling, but as long as there are things around selling at these prices I am not going to sit here twiddling my thumbs and just watch it.

I now realize that I should have been thinking LEAP calls in connection with the unrealistically low oil prices. That, too, was insane. Probably still time to get in, but the bottom has probably passed.

Thanks again--that is a great gift, especially for my broker, who won't have to give me real-time quotes any more over the phone. And 100 free options quotes a day turns out to be a lot more than I need.
