ecomm, never short, just puts and not since early March. Still net positive on EGRP puts, but my track record on EGRP has a lesson in it. Seems whenever I decide (after leaving it alone for a while) that EGRP is poised to move (down or up), I can time two trades right and make some money. But, if I go for the hat trick, the third trade is a loser. Works like this for me both long and short EGRP over the last couple years. You'd think I'd learn to quit while I'm ahead, but noooo!

Anyway, I've cut back my trading lately anyway (E*Trade even downgraded me) and now my account is growing faster than ever. There's another lesson in there I guess.

Good fortunes to you,
Bob
