Keith,

I'll echo your comments. I have been clipped almost 10% in two days. Sort of like a roller-coaster ride except you lose track of where you are when your eyes are closed. Question is, are you positioned to take advantage of the longer term rises in the market?

Personally I use minimal margin (<15%)to buy calls or sell puts on stocks I feel are going to make the right upside moves. Cree has been one of them. In hindsight I should have sold my dec 110 calls about 10 days ago and re-bought after the last couple days' decline. But, its hard to figure the bottoms and tops.

Suffice it to say you've got company.
