Online trading pat on back (eBay)..... low content + SYMC trade

[RollaJ]

I woke up this morning and saw eBay falling apart...... so I pulled up a quote and liked the Feb 85 puts @$3.10. So, I bought 5. I closed the screen and went to check my mail. I then forgot that I wanted to check something else on the broker site so I signed back on...... less than 10 minutes later and they were quoted 5.20-5.40...... hmmmm .
SO I figured I like a quickie as well as the next guy, SO I put in to sell at $5.20 and the bid dropped..... I got out at $5 ......... $900 in 10 minutes...... I am such a WHORE!!


BTW, I bot SYMC (symantec--The Norton AntiVirus guys) today.
I did this for 2 reasons:
1)I just downloaded Zone labs, and hated it compared to Norton Internet security
2)All you hear about these days is internet security issues (read the zoo)...
Got in at $24.15, looking to sell April $25 calls @ $2.15
