OJ..its amazing how you could hold an option through this much on EBAY. Good job. I could hold for a triple but now when the double goes from 15k to 30k that is too much for me to worry about. In the 'old days' I would buy an option for 3-4k and wait a week or two for possible double but now you buy 10 calls at 12-15k and its another ball game. Somewhere in the last 18 months or so the stock options are now 400-500% more expensive but ironically give back way more its weight. Reminds me of a snake I once saw eat a rabbit..(A friend had a pet store with a Boa) You can see the whole rabbit going down but the snake was happy as a clam when he finished the rabbit. The snake didn't gag at all, what a feast! I bet he could eat a donkey next.
