Playing & Trading Strategy

Very helpful breakdown, thank you.

I always get stuck thinking "Spend 40k to free up 2x260k?"  and then I get hesitant to mess with said well-chosen short.  

If it's been a sharp decline and breaks through a previous year-low I am more inclined to exit my position... but my decisions have been highly subjective and I was wondering what objective rules others set for themselves.

I like your order of actions set forth in paragraph 2 and I'll have to come up with one that works best for my port.

Just looking to spawn some interesting conversations in this forum like your neat thread last weekend http://www.hsx.com/forum/forum.php?id=2&pid=159111

I do something similar with >half my port but solely in the H$8-H$40 range because instead of pennies it can be dimes and if news breaks it (hopefully) won't be up $4 before you see it.  The jury is still out.
