CECO - Adjustment

The following adjustment was made today on CECO:

22-Dec-06 - Buy Back & Roll Out/Up - BTC 3 Jan07 25.00 Call @ -1.09 -
22-Dec-06 - Continued Trade - STO 3 Jul07 30.00 Call @ 1.49 -

The Jan07 25 call was an interim trade (i.e. below the cost basis) which would have resulted in a loss if called. Since the call went ITM this afternoon I decided to buy it back and roll it out to Jul07 and up to the 30 strike. Now this position will result in a profit if called. CECO was down as much as 54% at one point in this trade and I used dollar cost averaging twice to lower the cost basis.

Current Position Summary:

Stock Investment: $8,924.01
Income Generated: $1,075.25
Percent Income Generated: 12.05%
Net Profit If Called: $1,151.24
Percent Return If Called: 12.90%
