Ouch!! I had a partial fill on that AOL short earlier and pay any attention to it (Never happened before with a Big Board stock). All of a sudden I'm short 200 shares on the way up! Cost an 1/8 to get back out.

Lesson: Don't forget to cancel your order if your're not filled completely.

Edit: It only had insult to injury that I'd be ahead now if I hadn't freaked and sold them!

NSCP, LRCX, ENMD

Thanks for advice today, Susan ... NSCP turned out to be a bad short.

I'll hold LRCX over the weekend ... almost bailed to get off margin over the weekend (but it's only a little bit of margin!)

Wow ... catch the monster move on ENMD from 23 to 28 at 3:00 p.m? That one was on my watch list, but I wasn't paying attention. Oh well, par for the course. Worrying about 16ths and 8ths while another stock makes a five-point move!
