Learn't these nasty gambling skills from you. :D Bought some Oct 725 OEX calls at 4 bucks. Not a big position. But risking 1% of my account. Pure gambling. I wanna experience the ecstasy of the OPEX payday that the cheif keeps talking about. Cheif, make some sacrifices for me :D

If this is a typical OpEx week, they'll pay off tomorrow.

I see only two possibilies here. A sharp selloff of 250 more DOW points from here or a rally of 400 DOW points. Technically odds favor the downside. Tactically odds favor the upside. Which one ? I don't know. :)

Open ended risk with YM.

Contained risk with cheap calls with only "Sky" being the limit for profits. :P

the ecstasy might be the other way..

..yes..still holding puts..but I've sold some today of the octobers ..still holding 120 octs and 50 nov's..both 730s



re. spx target....maybe 1520ish

If we get back over 724 oex I'll probably sell the rest
