  7. Yea. That's correct atticus. Apparently its called the Tarzan does Jane trade. I like the risk with it. Not scary

    I´m staggered into buying CALLS, or going to. Have my first three contracts. Though while you say 67 low I´m thinking maybe worse case scenario 65.08

    This market is topping out. I would like to be all out of CALLS by Friday. Got rid of the other half of CALENDAR. I lost on that one.

    I´m buying June, but think I have to move to JULY and just made a note to that effect. Not enough time, to maneuver otherwise.

    Next week will be restricted to PUTS I think? I had the similar idea in mind. Was just trying to clear off the contracts from last week.

  9. I´m curious to follow BABUs diagonal and straddle. When is GOOG earnings?

    Want to sit back and see if I can decipher it. Or back engineer.

  10. Should perform very similar to the backspread, albeit you're in the term structure.
