I use Schwab 500. They're pretty good, although I keep meaning to move the accounts to Yamner & Co. (Steve Goldman's firm). The paperwork just sits on my desk day after day and stares at me. I put the order in at 92 and got it. I get a real thrill out of making money on the short side. But the AOL is a fairly risky one. A real gang tackle and tempting target for a big hitter who might want to engineer a squeeze. Normally, I'd use puts but I don't know when this turkey will tank.
