Dell Call

Entered into trade: Dell Jan 22.50 Call (.DLQAX) @ 1.90

In addition to developing my own proprietary trading system, I subscribe to several other services, primarily in an effort to further my knowledge and understanding of options trading. This particular trade came from one of these servicse, The Insider Report published by mega investment publisher Agora Financial. Service focuses on Insider buying activity. Hope to see move on earnings report 8/7/07, but room in time on option for some fall price appreciation. Service recommended a different strike price, but I went a little closer to the money. Price point didn't allow me to make even position size
