> Why not cash out ?

Because I missed my first once-in-a-lifetime profit chance when I didn't have the balls to go long these internuts a year ago.

I've gotten a SECOND once-in-a-lifetime profit chance by going short on these ridiculous dogs, and I'm TAKING IT.

>Is that the most money you've made in one day?

Yes, god, yes.

>Just think if you had eBay puts.

I do, but not enough. I almost cry when I think about friday morning when I was going through the EBAY options chain deciding which puts to take.. If I had gone 20 points further out of the money and invested the same amount of capital, i'd have made an extra 2 million dollars.

Folks, after I close these trades, I'm out of the game. I can't spend this much money even if I tried! I know many people on this thread have wanted me to leave for a long time- looks like you're getting your wish! Thanks for the memories, guys.. Best of luck!
