The only reason I did not short this stock is because I could not get any shares. I thought it was an ideal candidate when it was 50 (split adjusted). Even in my wildest dreams I would have dreamt that it could reach anywhere near 70 let alone 100 or 114!!!

Everyday I keep telling myself it will sink the next day, only to see it soar again and again. The probability of sinking the next day increases as the price goes up. I would have been trapped in this stock while keep averaging up. In other words, I would have been wiped out if I got any shorts when I tried.

I can understand your pain. I hope you get your money back on some other trade soon. This one is just too unpredictable and irrational to touch. I get dizzy just watching it.
