Craig...I've been watching my quote screen for the past couple hours and all the buying has been on tiny trades < 1K. On the flip side, there has been much institutional dumping. In the past 6 minutes alone, 18.7K and 20K sells. Soon following, dozens more poor saps with there petty 100 share purchases picking up the slack and helping keep the ASK inflated. I could have squeezed an extra 2G if I hadn't been so trigger-happy. Ah well...a win is a win is a win, right? Style Pts.

Matt, Nice job. All true, but take my word for it... don't waste your time on this guy.... Gary Style Pts.: How can you brag about such a pathetic trade? Considering the unlimited risk a short position represents, this was a really poor return. Trading this short should be done with options. You pride yourself as a trader? The only thing weaker than your business analysis of CISCO is your trading style! Sounds to me like you realized the underlying strength of this company and its stock - got scared and covered your poor trading decision. Nothing would please me more to see you go short again. You are playing with fire and your covered in gasoline. BTW: I really enjoy watching you make a fool of yourself keep up the entertainment! Happy Holidays!
