I entered EBAY today via some August out of the money calls. My rationale was more contrarian than anything. The stock has not had a meaningful rally in months, and the short position has been growing. I further was advised of a technical bounce coming in the nets yesterday. Clearly I missed it today, however EBAY dropped 5 bucks in the last hour. Sentiment is very negative for the whole sector right now. How much lower we go is anyone's guess, but if I was short, I'd have to be eyeing an exit point while the momentum is working for me. You end up hanging on to make a few extra points, and when the others start buying, you can lose 10 back in a hurry. EBAY probably has the most potential for one of those runs given it's float/short ratio.
