yup.. and heck, I have put so many trades in over the last 8 years you would think nothing would surprise me anymore.. and if I were trying to grab that 'ask' as the stock just made a new low, or there was no volume etc etc I would understand.. but this sucker was being sold, the bid was being hit hard, and that ask just kept being lowered obviously in an attempt to lower the price and make it look like there was big selling.. and everytime I went to cover the spread immediately jumped .10/.12- it wasnt pretty.. especially with my temper you could only imagine??

but hey, like I said.. Im very proud of myself because the 'old' Paul would have taken it alot more personally and held that short out of spite trying to get a better cover.. but as soon as that demon crept into the picture I immediately just took the cover at their higher price and moved on.. Looking back? the cover at $41.30 wasnt bad because it Immediately fired up to 41.70/41.80 and never even dipped from that point.. and this one was tempting to hold out of spite but in the end we know who always gets the last laugh when you do that : (

How ironic I was just busting Zeev about his playing crazy stocks like OSTK and he jabbed back about me playing IMCL hehehe.. Talk about putting my foot in my mouth!

Tis a new day.. Im ready.. I harbor no ill will!!
