Continuing the IFMX discussion and more...

This thread is a continuation of the options discussion which occurred on the IFMX thread last week. Let's use this thread to continue that discussion and also to make money while we're doing it. This thread isn't for elementary discussions about options ( e.g. what's the difference between a put and a call) nor is it for nor is it for high rolling options traders with many years of experience. If anyone is interested there is a good discussion on the IFMX thread which took place over the last week and a half so you might want to check there first. This thread isn't restricted to IFMX only so feel free to discuss other issues which you feel are appropriate here but let's keep this thread about technology stocks vs. just making money in options no matter what segment of the market if that's ok with everyone. And let's just say that within a short time we should have all read MacMillan's book on options...which I am getting today.
Melissa.
