I picked up 6000 SMOPW at .55 figured I wouldn't get greedy over a nickel. Sat on 17K at .50cents I put in at around 11:30 and watched orders filled at .46 too....man that pisses me off! That was my 10K block on SMOP at 3 27/32....mistyped it and it got cancelled. (have been a bad boy and got my account restricted on a round trip I forgot about in October) Picked up another 2500 shares though in two bites. 20% premium on SMOP for max 4 month wait....beats the bank and even though I understand Slider's logic that we are approaching a peak, I think it will come later in time...that said, to not take a relatively risk free 20% vs. staring at my CRT all day? My wife and I are considering taking a chunk of profits and taking a couple of months in the Carribean come mid January! VBG Just about out of powder....got to dump my last 1/3 of RRC, but its on a run and will let it go...gonna hurt me to dump it before Jan 31, (or april for that 13% LT cap.gains premium) but we'll see..... Congrats to all that have fared well as of late. Q? What is the basket of stocks you are holding now? Slider says you're broke! VBG Cosmo
