Thanx for the support. Still having problems with ETrade. THis morning they said they would do the exercise but only if a simultaneous sell market order was placed for the 20000 shares of Q. Duhhhh!

After some more chatter, they came back and said that they would put in the exercise order but that I would "probably" get a Fed margin call because I wouldn't be "in compliance", i.e., I never paid for the stock.

Tried to explain free riding distinction to them but to no avail.

Will keep you posted.
