Gee, Mr. Wexler, I can only go on what you post.

After the close yesterday, IDX was at 8 and 3/8 (actually a teeny lower or so at 4 pm rather than its usual 4:15 last trade), you posted a 25% increase in your short. I posted here while IDX was trading at about $9.25. Let's do the math, shall we? $9.25 less $8.31 = about $1 ago.

Either you can't do arithmetic or you aren't honest in your posts. I'll assume your arithmetic skills are poor.

But the better question is: Why short on bad news (preannouncement yesterday) rather than on ephemeral good news (CNBC appearance) today? Don't you pay any attention to your trades?
