Morning Dealer (yes, it's after 12:00 here in NY, and I was told officially that I can say good morning now). Good to "hear" from you. I think that I am going to get one of those automated answering machines to deal with margin calls. "...if you are trying to collect on a margin call, please press 1 now, otherwise please hold until the next plausible excuse is available to delay your call...". Your strategy is analogous to buy on the rumor, sell on(or right before) the announcement. I always found that buying calls right after a "train wreck" always worked for me.
