congratulations on your great trades.

imo- i have found most options have value at some time after you buy them.
the problem is when to sell them or convert to stock.

thanks for being brave enough to post your trades.

AN UPDATE ON MY RECENT CALL PICKS:
1. CNET: stock split may herald these guys to $200 soon. Down today and seems to follow the overall internet trend. Still expect $200 within a month or 2.
2. CMGI: stock split and my favorite net stock could easily see $300 again.. Dropped today, but still a great stock with high volatility.
3. RNWK: Hype. Plus a split coming.
4. SDTI: I called this one a long shot on April 22 in this Forum. However, after a 14.2% jump today when the rest of NET Stocks dwindled, I could easily imagine this hitting 30 soon. Check out the high percentage jump in call options today. If it does, look for percentage gains on some calls to be in the 1000's.
5. EGGS: Their call options are among the cheapest around, but gotta get some new hype or buyout rumors. Overall the riskiest, but potentially highest profit call option of my picks.

Good Luck, Mark
