LQU trade will most likely not be taken.


Substandard trades are not my game anymore.

Hi coolweb...I like your NVT selection...took a few moments to check it out, while a bit pricy (high price to book/sales) analyst like it and seems to be in a relatively stable channel since Oct. While you are certainly right that all cars and other's will have it...probably not in the next 15 days your target of 55 is probably not realistic also in the next 15 days as that would be quite a jump....having said that I like it and here is one way to play it.

April ATM straddle mid price is $5.4...(vols are 5 pts higher than Mar but not exceedingly high) I would buy the stock and sell the straddle... if I'm called out then still have an 11.8% gain, protected to the downside by the $5.4 premium. Of course that is holding until April exp which is 8 weeks away. I could chose to close it out if it goes no where and premiums shrink..still locking in a decent gain. ...pretty good r/r
sooo putting on my watch list...THANKS for the suggestion donna
