  4. this would be a good time for Bush-II to show his leadership....

    since it seems anyone complaining about the economic impact and destruction of life as most Americans know it, due to the unfettered rise in the price of oil, and how it is causing people on the ground to rethink everything about their ways of life, whether being a soccer mom and taking a trip to the grocery all the way to whether or not the police / fire trucks will roll on emergencies....

    since anyone complaining of pointing out the negetive deliterious effects is being smeared with some socialist, communist name calling by those in support of these conditions,

    then, a simple solution would be for Geo Bush II to show his commanding, authoritative leadership and get out in front of this "thing"

    hey, after all, isn't he an Oil Man?
    hey, after all, isn't this what these last 8 years were all about anyway?

    hey, after all, with stocks going up, oil going up, with stocks going down, oil going up,

    hey, after all, isn't this what the Texas Delegation has wanted all along?

  6. if you're new at options, i'd stay away from oil unless you're really willing to potentially lose what you plan on "throwing" into it. if you're looking to buy puts on the more aggressive side, I would say to buy in the aug range, out of the money puts. You'll have time for it to sit and you'll have a large upside potential. But personally if I were going to do something like that and just take a shot with a few grand, limit yourself to only that money, if it turns around on you, dont add to the position thinking its an opportunity. Theres too much big money 'deciding' where oil goes, its not smart to go against that with a few grand. Just my thoughts

  7. I'm a lousy day trader ... So I'm swinging my options for a while. Know my risk. Oil could go to 150 and I'm sleeping soundly.

  9. I don't know what you are talking about? So you are trying to tell me when oil go from 60 to 100, then drop back to 90, it's call weakness?

    Even a dead cat dropped to the floor bounce.
