Ad, sorry to see that, although I am glad the bulls are finally getting some action. Watching you trade has been a major enlightenment thing for me. You almost always make money until you don't. And when you don't, you REALLY don't! In the end, I'd bet that AMAT gives some of today's euphoria back and you'll cut your loss somewhat.

It's times like these that make me appreciate covered calls. [Heads I win, tales I win. <g>]

AD,

So you are short 5,000 @ 43.79. You still have an equivalent amount of unspent ammunition for scalping. Much better than your position last time you were caught in the headlamps. Is excessive loss aversion causing you to hold short positions overnight against your better judgment?
