  • CTX March $50 puts are $1.10

  • PTR $120 puts, offering .75
  • TSO Mar $80 puts (TSOOP) – offering $1.60

HYDL Mar $80 puts (HBQOP) are $2.75 and will be slow to go down if VLO group starts dropping, especailly SLB

  • NOV $65 MAR/FEB $65 puts for $1.30 is a nice spread!

I’m watching the Dow 12,600, Nas 2,480, S&P 1,438, NYSE 9,288, Russell 810, SOX 465

Dollar getting hit again, saving oil and gold.

Breaking 3 of these levels is a good time to sell off calls! I’m setting 20% from today’s open stops on Feb Mar and Aprils – obviously too many to list!

  • QQQQ $44 puts for .30 make a fun day trade
    • half out at .40 with a stop at .25

Got my PTRs! .75 half out at a buck, .75 stop on the rest if it goes there (.25 trail)

  • BHI Mar $67.50 puts for $1.55

REMINDER – All these oil plays are still very dangerous and may have to be DD’d or rolled more than once to pay off!

  • Covering my day oil puts with VLO $55s at .80
    •  half out at $1.20

TSO – did not fill.

VLO calls, lowered offer to .75, also no fill, may wait for this dip to see if they can hold $54.75 first

  • Took my .30 back on the QQQQ puts
Posted February 8, 2007 at 12:50 pm | Permalink (Edit)
  • VLO blew their chance to run I think – cancelling order for calls

  • Half out of CVX Mar $70 puts at $1
    • I had dd’d at .55 to offset losses…
    • caught this one late – sorry
  • MA offering $1.35 for DD on Mar $100 puts
  • DD on SBUX Jan $37.50s @ $2.25

  • Offering $1.25 for TSO Mar $80 puts
    • Very risky!
    • Update 3:01 – paid $1.35

  • Old PTR $120 puts stopped out at .50
  • now offering .25 for more.

  • Sold my FXI $107s calls for $2
    • waiting to sell calls against my leaps.

Posted February 8, 2007 at 3:51 pm | Permalink (Edit)

  • ADBE – buy April $37.50s for $2.75
    • hopefully get a chance to sell the March $37.50s on a nice run-up.
    • Of course you have to be willing to DD on the April calls if it turns out to be hell bent on testing the 50 dma at $35 (or possibly adding April $35s and selling March $35s against with the April $37.50s protecting you from a pop).
