Some of us old timers that have daytraded for many years just don't fool with internet stocks, too risky. Have used abw for some time with no margin calls or any type of problems. Of course I do not trade these highly risky stocks, maybe that is your problem, what you are trying to trade, and not watching your positions on a real time basis.

AlienTech, I empathize with you for your financial loss. I too have lost money on options... and have decided not to play with them anymore... my approach to buying stocks, is that I will only buy what I am willing and able to hold for an extended period of time... having said that, I try to always allow for wild gyrations with minimal chances of getting a margin call... AlienTech, if I may, take a break, and re-evaluate your approach and modify it if need be. I wish you the best of luck best regards amein alsuezi
