Sold all 3 of my CPQHU's this morning at 10.

Still holding my 2 IBMHA's (Aug 105's)

Lombard screwed up the order... on the internet my "holdings" indicated I only held 1 CPQHU and the trade activity area clearly showed my buying the other 2 yesterday afternoon. I couldn't put in a sell order (I had a limit order from yesterday) - I was actually going to raise my sell limit.

So I called them and sat on hold for about 10 minutes (annoying) and when I finally got through I was going to raise my limit order and I asked how many I had (1 or 3) and she said 0, that I had sold 3 @ 10 earlier.

I don't feel bad about it now... good thing, I was getting greedy. But I had placed that limit order yesterday for a reason, and I'm glad it got filled.

Of course, wouldn't bother me one bit if CPQ went higher and the rest of you still holding calls make $$$
