Hi Wong,

Here is some info that might help you with your LEAPS on MSFT.

Watch Price at these levels 89 15/16, 80 3/8***( this area came up twice), 60.
Look for a CIT on 4/18-4/21.  Its suppose to be the 4/19, but give it a +/- a day
or two.

For the Nasdaq Comp.  I have a support of 3438-3432  and a CIT for ~ 4/14-4/17,
4/19, 4/24

TradeWell,
Joe Frabosilio
