Be nice Guru, it doesn't cost anyone anything.

I did not have a limit order - calls don't have limits or stops. My broker took it upon himself to insist I place a floor. To humour him, I gave him a figure of 65...emphasizing that I did not want to sell.

For a second it touched that figure....and he sold....without confirming with me.

It was too late for me. It actually happened long before I knew it. Here I was, happy it had recovered, he had actually sold out much before that point !

Boy, am I angry ! But then, I did make good money overall on YHOO I'll and will be back on Monday. Just the fact that I have to lose the commission and wait for an entry point...not to mention the search for another broker. Not very good.
