Do you really feel my pain?

I'm sitting here, scratching my many mosquito bites (spent the last several days kayaking with the kids), looking at the NVLS 30-minute chart, realizing that on 6/20 the bid on my (large position in) NVLS puts got within 0.1 points of reaching my limit sell order price. And now the stock is soaring rapidly back to 56, where I bought the puts. If I had been willing to accept the quoted bid when the stock hit 48 (which I had previously said was my target for selling the puts), I'd have locked in a large gain, and be looking at reloading on puts again. Now, my gains are gone. And AMAT is over 50, now, as well. Ugghhh.
