Tip, Hoyt Axton wrote it and recorded it and Ringo covered it for the pop stations. BTW, Hoyt was arrested recently for a large box of marijuana in his car, so I fear he hasn't been practicing what he sings. -g- I would roll the Octs, too, assuming you think the stock is still going down. A quadruple is a lot of money to leave on the table. Market conditions do impact my rolls. In the past three weeks, I just haven't been able to roll fast enough on some issues, so I went after the nearest term and highest profit positions first. I may be too finicky in my trading, but since I walk the broker through my needs in a detailed manner, it takes a lot of hand holding, nagging and occasional death threats which are totally sincere at the time I make them. -g- Also, I don't feel good about having more than one options trade working at any one time with one brokerage firm. Too many bad experiences. And, too many, "we didn't fill your order. But we did sell one put better than your price limit." -g- Yes, that was more of a problem when I was slinging them in the 1000s at American Capital, but even my dinky account requires me to grab the broker by the throat to get decent execution.
