chic, <kicking yourself for not buying at end of day>
I sold some of my WM (Washington Mutual) calls hoping to pick up some more AMD April 55's. Then I saw that the proceeds did not flow to "cash available" on my account screen. By time customer service answered at 4:01, they said that my account is now classified as "concentrated" and therefore requires 50% margin at all times.

I didn't want to sell the RAMBUS puts. Looks like that was a good decision. It dropped 20 after they announced their 15 pennies and then AMD's results actually pushed it even lower!
