[Off-topic] I'm afraid that your Citrix short price and target are unrealistic (even moreso your revised short price!) - Citrix was halted all the way through the close, with some trades posted near the close from earlier in the day. Some data services are reporting an incorrect close price. You'll never be able to short it near 71 (let alone 74), unless it recovers tomorrow. It was trading around 64 1/2 to 65 at the time that it was halted. (In other words, your suggestion is somewhat akin to saying "buy INTC at 50 or below..." It ain't gonna happen.) But I'm batting zero. This morning, I basically flipped a coin - JTAX or VTS, JTAX or VTS, and chose VTS! I previously owned JTAX and sold it with a nice profit. Was looking for a re-entry point, and decided it could wait. 1/2 hour later it was halted for a buyout announcement. VTS plummeted... 100 shares, no biggie.
