Margin call? Ha, no. You used half of my cash at the time to short goog, half of $104.14, presumably there is $52.07 in an imaginary money market. And besides, the sale of Curis raises about $49, which is nearly enough to cover the Google short. In any event with $2.29 in losses for shorting GOOG added to the cash in my fake money market, plus $1.25 times 39.151 for $48.94 salvaged from selling CRIS, I rekon I have $98.72 less the 1% commission. Call it $98 and I wont switch to a different broker, ha.
