Monroe1 if you really want to stop your shares from being used, a high well outside the ASK will not work. Your share price is too far outside the inside to have a realistic chance of being executed, therefor your shares will be used. The call to cover will occur when the share price nears your sell price. Or have your shares converted to share certificates, that way they are permanently removed and cannot be used because they cannot be located to short and naked shorting is controlled more vigorously today.
