Bull'si.. I owe you two answers. One is yes I sold AOL and the YHOO were puts not calls. The reason I didn't call sells on AOL is simple. When AOL was an 'active' trade fresh with a buy trigger I get in and stay in. I call sells when the trade is 'fresh'. Once the trade is getting 'older' say a week or more, it gets relegated to the 'halfway house' between short term and intermediate trade. If it stabilizes like LTXX or MANU I hold longer but by that time interest has flagged for everyone. Then I just go and sell it or put it into the intermediate portfolio like I do with EFII, DISH,LTXX, ADLAC etc.. same as I didn't call a sell on ADLAC or another accumulation of a few hundred DISH, it gets relagated to my 'personal' portfolio. I churn stocks and to call sells beyond the 'watch list' period is difficult. I try to call sells and succeed on the 1-5 day holds and/or continuation of uptrends like VRTY, and MANU but that is because earnings were pending in the latter two but as interest wanes in AOL I stopped reporting.
