didn't add any calls - waited for PB and didn't get it. My entry signal was excellent so in hindsight should have done at least 4-5 yeasterday. Still long calls on GOOG in other accounts.

sold 2 GOOG March 390c @ 9.30

PnL +540


looking to enter 380c (to avoid PDT rule b.s.)

sold 6 DNA March85c @ 2.45

PnL (-180)

calls were down to 125 bid this week so I was in the red >1000 (had 7 long). Actually tried to buy more yesterday @ 1.15.

I took this opportunity to exit looking to re-enter this strike/month or another. I am still bullish DNA; and still am have a 85/90p bull spread + long calls in another account.

how the F-cK can EBAY be up <.05 on a day like this? It is simply inexplicable! Random-fking-walk! DAMN this is frustrating way to start the week. :confused: Even the falling knive INTC is up .38!

It's days like this that make you wish you became a surf bum.

The VERY FKING minute I exit these 20 calls this POS stock will immediately see >4250-43! :eek:

It's like they HALTED this POS stock. Suddenly EBAY doesn't move even a DIME on a day the NDX gaps higher, and trades up >21 points. Ok I get it! Makes perfect sense.

Plus I hold a LOT of stock in this b.s company in 3 accounts. But isn't that how it usually is-- the largest positions you are in don't move a muscle---- while the ones you fail to enter with enough size take off for the fking MOON! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:
 
I feel your pain ice. Seems to happen to me as well.:( Did u get my pm message? I sent the NASD a similar letter about the PDT rule(in their broker complaint form). I'm guessing the likelihood of them responding to me is about as good as a 8 sigma event!lol

also, u just gave me a great calendar spread candidate in EBAY. IV near low end of range(7th %ile), under 30 IV, slightly overpriced to HV(SV)31%. underlying not trending shrply.:)

hi vp

thanks for the PM. yes I got it but have been real sick with 1025 fever over weekend --- which is why I am in such a pissed-off mood today!! never ever had a fever that high (without a very pretty woman in the room)!

will reply as soon as I feel better (and hopefully EBAY is >42!)

then to compound things I got out of my 4 lot of MNX 16250 (entered at 6.23) calls this morning @ 6.70 for no reason other than feeling like crap. They are now bid 7.90

moral: not a good idea to make trding decisions with fever and a cold! :eek:

regards,
