Gottfried -

I don't think I need an explanation of the max-pain concept right now. ;-0

Seriously, though, I got out this morning myself. As soon as I saw that news story, I put in a sell order at 4 1/8 or better. (via Citibank online.) It was about 9:31, and the stock hadn't started trading yet.

I was very pleasantly surprised to find that my order was executed at 4 1/8, which means I sold at the high of the day. This was a great trade for me, since I happen to have bought this last batch of IOM at an intraday low.

Too bad the low I bought at was 2 3/4 higher than the high I sold at. I don't think that's what they mean by "buy low sell high."

For all who are still hanging in, I sincerely hope that the fact that longtime bulls like Gottfried and me are selling does indicate the bottom has been reached.

I will continue to watch Iomega with interest.
