herman, tha's all you can do..It's happened to me many times..not being able to keep tabs.
In january when ATML reported earnings.
I was in meetings the day of report and the friday afterward.
I had huge positons. I couldn't listen to their conf. call ..nothing.
Anyway I settled for great profit. $2 a share on options etc.
Well even the upstrike calls made $6 a share. I took the sure thing. bot them for 5/8's and sold them for 1.5.. great profit but...
stock went from $35 to 41 like that.
But, I unwound early bec. I knew that I couldn't watch it.
My ultimate profit should have been $15 a share for 6 days had I been able to listen to conf. call after they reported.

In Dec. God sent me a dream to stay clear of atml from mid january to march 12....
I did and it crashed from 48 to 25.

I too hate limit ordr. I think the MM will nail you some how<g>
