I'm not doing all that well with it either. I have May 35 calls. I think I can kiss those goodbye. But then, of course, all may not be lost. Steve Harmon seems to think that the stock is a good buy here (and it was even higher yesterday when his article was written). fnews.yahoo.com

Belinda--ouch--hate to see fellow gemmer with losses like that. I simply cannot trade without using stop losses. Sometimes I get head faked out (HLYW!), but it saves the pain of holding large loss positions, particularly when I cannot watch the market every minute like many of those on the thread. I try never to take more than a 5-8% loss and let the winners run with trailing stops. IMO USWB (which I got stopped out of two days ago with a 3% loss) has broken down and will not come back for a while. Just my thoughts! jim
