<< Hi
 
 
 this is just for education .
 
 let say 1/29/98  you follow  your   support and ressistance levells for  this
 trading day
 
 I got confused with this strategy can you be more clear of your plan. 

 R2  was 984.65  
              985.39
              988.21
 1.38       993.22  (spot)
 
 when sp future hit your target  in price you  buy  a  june 990  future put
 
Do you mean to ExitLong position at target price?

 in essence you are  acomplishing  2 folds
 A:  you locked your proffit

If you ExitLong at your Target price the trade is Closed!

 b:   you  can stay overnight if you wish (you have an insurance policy for
 disaster

Insurance for what ? you already closed your position! Now if you didn't close
your position at your target then - a ) How did you mean you lock in profit ?
- b )
 c:   let say fri  morning  sp500 sell  off   to  985  . you sell put@  nice
 proffit

If you sell your Put you might make profit on the option but your losing
Dollar for Dollar on your SP long ?

 and enter  secound sp500 long.

Even more confusing!

 d: if  sp500  close@xxxx at fri close..  (and it probably will not)
 you  close  2 sp500@xxxx
 NICE 2 DAY WORK
 YOU CAN HAVE A NICE WEEKEND
 
 the same would  work  if you are short  sp500   from  990 today but bought a
 call
 when sp500 was @ 980..
  
Perhaps I missed something can you please explain clear detail your plan when
you go long SP whwen you exit Long SP etc..

Good Trading
Mark
