    2.89 was the high. What did you get? 5.20?
     
  9. Is this a "hold-til-bust" swing trade or do you have some sort of stop in place?
    Seems like a pretty ballsy trade.
    They're still paying almost 10% dividend, but if that gets cut, you might see some more downside action. Plus the damn thing is hitting 10 year lows.
     
  10. Given I only have 2 contracts, it doesn't matter if it busts. But as a trader it is more about ego and being right... only looking for a $ or so up move....
