Can you explain the oprocess of "shorting against the box".

Does that mean that you kept your DELL long shares but shorted 2/3(instead of selling).

And for the shares you do have, you sold Covered Calls.

Why 2/3 ?

Thanks

I'm going to have to learn these techniques so I dont freak out on days like this and ruin my exemplary temperament.

Which group does the song
"Hold on
Help is on its way
I'll be there as fast as I can"?

I need someone to come hold my hand.
No both hands would be safer.
