No virtual platform, Wednesday
General notes
Have to finish with my application paperwork with Optionsxpress.com since they closed me off of my - now only virtual - account. I have realized that within 1 or 2 weeks I will go live anyway + I'm totally hooked on the convenience of optionsxpress.com. I will make that 1 day without it, I hope. Later in the day I could access my Optionsxpress.com account again. Thanks, guys!

I managed to get onto myCBOE where I can trade on the same virtual trading platform that at optionsxpress.com.
10:14:49 AM My SNDK APR 42,5 Call reached (past) my first target and closed out 3 positions at $2,55 each. Then I swiftly put a tight (5% down from $2.6) trailing stop on the two remaining contracts.
11:53:07 AM The two last contract was exited automatically at $2.7 (Trailing stop on .SWQDV down by 5% from $2.9 (GTC). Order sent at 4/4/2007 11:52:19 AM ET with .SWQDV @ $2.75)
