..and thar she blows. Dell stock started nudging 35, and I got my fill. And a satisfying, two-week put trade that was, too. <g> Still holding one small position, just in case the market starts to value the stock like I do (i.e., worth twenty to a real optimist). -mb

Been there, done that. I've always lived by the adage, that you will never go broke by taking a profit. At any rate, that doesn't keep me from crying like a baby when I look back and see all the money that I left on the table by capitalizing on a decent profit(questionable reasoning possibly)
