Dude, I closed all positions before lunch. I'll be on the side-lines enjoying this one. Good Luck

Shorted 500 at 111 7/8. Good move Craig, actual short shares at this price level is much better than puts. I can only "reserve" 150 short shares from my full service broker, and I am asking to short at $118 and cover at $101. The commission is much higher and it's inflexible to trade. Please be careful on writting Oct uncovered calls, don't write too many!! I had $60K loss in three weeks writting Jun & Jul uncovered calls; I "handled" them in the worst possible ways and did not seek help when I should have. I "can" handle it much much better now given the same situations. Good luck!
