    Follow at own risk, of course, bla bla bla, you will lose :eek:


    For no specific "reason" let us sell some puts for ANF.

    8 down + 3.5 in to 56

    We will sell 10 contracts as follows:

    Sell 10 x $19.00 May16 Puts for $0.56

    http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/options/default.asp?Symbol=ANF

    Premium received = 10 x 100 x 0.56 = $560 less comms

    Lets see what happens before we try and lose some more:eek:

    We have a few "options" open to us if this thing keeps falling:D

    If it is wrong, it is wrong, but we can only go on what we see, and sometimes it is too good to be true, and sometimes it is not:confused:

    For those of you who were quick enough, you will now see that it is gone - told you so, too good to be true, remember:D

    Still valid though, all that can happen is we lose a few bob:D


    IT'S BACK - I will capture it this time:D

    JEEZ, IT'S GONE AGAIN - but I have captured that also:D

    There is something on the treetop that we cannot see. The bird is reluctant to leave it.
