I think that was Edamo, though it sure looks like this guy was taking Mr. Amo's advice. A sobering series of posts regarding margin also here: #reply-9763843 #reply-9764054 -mb

Michael, yesterday I closed a DELL put position at a nice profit. At the time the spread was 3/4 of a point, and I would have had to have given up 1/4 point to sell them, as they were deep in the money Junes. So I decided to buy the stock, and exercise the option. It gave me an additional profit of thinking that perhaps one of our friends from the DELL thread was forced to buy some shares at 45 this morning. <eg>
