<<I believe Octavian once said his exposure was 4%. which comes out to 1/3 of the minimum recommended. I congratulate you and Octavian for having a stop on this trade. It is something Brinker didn't have sense enough to do.>>

--Just for the record, I didn't actually have a stop. But by the time it fell into the 60s it was pretty obviously a failed trade. I ended up selling at about $55 (as I recall, it fell into the 40s, and then rallied briefly and I got lucky and caught the very top of the rally).
