Who wants a guaranteed profit?? I need a favor. I held too much stock this afternoon. I forgot I had an order open for NATS at 5-1/2 and it filled...all 6,200 shares. When I tried to place an order to sell 4k of them to keep out of a margin call, my software wouldn't recognize the stock as mine. Everything got real slow on my PC today. I had to shut down my trading software and by the time I got back up and running again, the market was closed. It's been snowing like heck here all day. Anyway, I have 4k shares sitting on ISLD at 7/16 right now, but there are no buyers in the stock. I wonder...is there anyone or a couple of you guys that would/could pick them up for me, and I will buy them back from you premarket tomorrow AM. I know this may seem a little crazy, but I would do it for many of you. I don't care whether I take a loss on the stock so much. I just don't want to be in a call in the morning. If you could do it, I would really appreciate it and I would owe you one. I give you my word, you will get at least 1/2 for all 4k of them to cover your commissions. If you find a seller before me at a higher price, more power to you. If you can't do it, I'll understand. If you do do it, let me know it was you. Thanks, Greg
