APOL this POS has disappointed me for the last time! Once I cannot figure out a stock like this- I will try to exit with the least loss and look for something else to trade. This is a joke. I was going to take some short stock over the weekend in another account - but my analysis said it was going higher. Obviously this stock has a "mind" of its own and IF I cannot figure it out- then they can KMArse. I'm not interested in playing shell games with the scumbag NASD MMs or institutional pricks who are marking this down to accumulate while I watch my OTM calls waste away. Remember though- you always miss 100% of the shots you don't take. The APOL trade is just ONE miss with approx 4 weeks to go. CME Doesn't every trader just love to see the broader markets sharply lower and yet the ONE stock they own puts not being marked lower and/or falling with the falling tide. Isn't that a great feeling! Yep. Sure is! So couple this with APOL being down almost a buck YET cme treading water and this is a day I'd rather be spending in Vegas. Maye the dice would be "luckier" ! :eek:

Nice journal, but I am a little confused by your GOOG fill. The March 390 call traded between $7.00 and $10.00 today.
thanks actually I sold the 390c the other day for 9.65. Then bought 2 GOOG 370c @17.40. So today I scratched those two calls since I didn't like the action in GOOG, and also think I will find a better entry on maybe 4-8 contracts later this week. I meant to say-- 370c not 390c :eek: 02-17-06 08:32 AM GOOG sold 4 GOOG March 390c @ 9.65 (near HOD as per plan) PnL = +1440 + 1 GOOG March 370c @1890 + 1 Goog March 370c @ 16
INTC +20 Intc July 2250 Calls @ .65 Why not? Going for the 3-peat. Screwed up DNA and APOL trades so far-- that's TWO --- so why not put some icing on the cake, and get into another dog with fleas. open order buying 20 more @ .40
