BIKR did not work out like SKYM, though it was a decent speculation. I sold while still in-the-money, so I hardly feel "slammed." As for SKYM my friend, I sold Monday morning and netted well into the six figures, as I had held quite a block. I hardly call that getting "slammed." You have a singular talent for eliciting laughter. I noticed you tried shorting SKYM early Monday morning under 30. If you had listened to my gap 20-30 and run 40-50 targets, perhaps you might have avoided receiving a sound thrashing.

As for your shorting SKYM in the 40's, I for one will be the first to congratulate you. Looking at the charts of most (though not all) Internet mania plays, once they slowed down and turned they began to drop dramatically within at the most 48 hours. Excellent work. Of course, news of the CEO selling 600,000 shares will bolster your position. Again, good call. Next time do not underestimate the run-up, however. I was never suspended - I was enjoying the holidays. If reposting a news story that is given out freely over the Internet is illegal, it is news to me - it is done every day, by thousands of members here at SI.
