Kelly,

Congrats to your ONSL profit. You should have been there when a couple of particular longs were thumbing their noses as the shorts when the stock was $30+ (One comes to this thread sometimes)!

It's too bad you can't get AMZN shares. All I can say is to keep trying. A lot of time shares become available after a big move in the stock, be alert then. Unfortuantly when shares become available it means the stock is moving in the wrong direction! Some lucky people shorted in the $60's. Most are in the $50's and below though. I have a few shares shorted as low as $42, but most are in the $50's.

We are also on the same side on YHOO. AMZN is a better short than YHOO IMO but YHOO is very good too. Some YHOO longs are in la-la land (although in fairness some are pretty level headed and understand the risks).
