Jan,

Why do you trade AMZN with a box position? I don't think shares are difficult to borrow and the stock is very liquid these days.

so right now I am 250L/300S.

$35K is a lot of capital to tie up for a $7K net stake.

Just wondering what the advantage is in such a position.

FWIW - I have no position in AMZN right now, but will most likely short the stock on the expected 'earnings' (laugh) run up.

Thanks,
Don
