In addition if you lost money on your margin trade you will loose your tax loss deduction if you had bought it back this morning as you outlined. If your not aware of it , it's called the IRS washout rule. Which says if you buy back before 31 day elapses you loose the tax loss deduction. It suck but it's the law. BTW: That was one hell of a success story. Best wishes 3d
