Eric

You have a great strategy. Mine is dead simple -- play the lead month. I am doing nothing more than buying April 35 calls. I have been trading options for some time and have never progressed to the straddles and selling of puts and calls that you engage in -- although maybe it is time I did. Your thorough explanation makes perfect sense and I think it is a winning strategy with this stock. I also like your time horizons which provide stability lost in the short term trade. You are playing a trend, and I think you are on the right side of the trend. Good luck on your trades. Maybe I will follow in your footsteps. And thanks for the post.

Eric -- bought calls at the open and had a good run today along with the stock. I also own the stock with an average price of about 23 something. Didn't catch it near the bottom. But I love the ride now. I think this thing has good legs and plan to try both short term and long term gains through calls and stock respectively.
