M&M, if you follow the posting more closely you would see that RG went short @ 39 1-8 not 38 1/8. As of right now he is out of the money 3/16. So what's the point of your post? Ron Dior

What is the peanut going to do? He's short. ATHM gapped up. The big blocks are market order to buy, but the relentless selling is forcing a down side sensitivity. The state is net flow in, yet upside elastic. Do you cover or grit it out? The gunslingers who came on have grown a little quiet. Half were short and half were long. You don't hear from the shorts. If you asked them, they would say they covered on Wednesday. The longs are crowing. If ATHM drops, then the same would say they held tough and the longs would say they sold. Half of each group are liars. If any of them took action, half went short and half long, from both groups. This is the white noise which generates the random walk. Emotion causes the return from these random decisions to be leptokurtotic, and so they realize a faster ruin rate than the market provides. Peanut is under emotional pressure. He is now seeing the stock could go a lot higher and he can't see it going lower. All for a few hundy you lose a few thou. Consider the stress. It's still small money, but the stress is way up there. Few have the strength to last more than five years under this barrage. Baby doesn't get the shoes, loses the pants, and the hot shot loses his heart.

Please refer me to the post that I bought in 140's. I may have I traded this stock at least 50 times this year up an down. But the real story is that I bought and held (for a while<g>) between 23-28 pre split. If I was still holding I would still be doing quite well. But why hold your limitations back as AH when you can take a chance and get to know the stock as Ron has said and you to will get a feel for where it is going. If you make a mistake 1 or 2 points will not make you loose. Sell it and wait for the next opportunity. Rg
