RMBS is dangerous to short overnight. When you can't watch your position intraday in this stock its turning into lack of exercising proper risk tolerance, I don't care how much "experience" the trader thinks he has. The overnight short is more dangerous than the overnight long and even those are risky. I don't know why traders insist on shorting a powerhouse of a stock overnight unless its a 'safer' option position. I always trade Options on RMBS that way you can't lose more than 35 to 50% of the initial investment which is usually up to 5 or 6k.

I had that experience with CMRC but lost only 5k..and that stung. 56k is just being a tad too reckless. I'd rather make 5 or 10k instead of 50k.. than chance to lose 50k. I might buy 1 or 2 thousand shares of a short/long position intraday with proper stops, but how can you put stops into a potentially gapping stock?
