Short DECK and Retails

[DarnellSof]

I can't tell you how much I love to hate DECK. This stock is not justifiable at 112. Its a below $60 stock and should break hard before year end....

I'm in with some Dec puts. Keep it on your radar...

I hope you got into DECK short. It's down 12 today.

Short DECK and retail on any bounce...

who knows DECK turns out to be next CROX?

I wish I had held to it myself. I unloaded all my puts this morning for a small gain.

Any bounce towards 110-112 and I'm all over it...

Been following your blog on this trade, and I am a little confused.

Your blog shows you entered the trade on 9-10-08 with Dec 100 puts at $8.90, then added to your position yesterday with 5 more contracts at $8 for a total of 15 contracts. You then state in the above post that you "unloaded" your position this morning for a small gain.

My confusion comes in with the fact that there were no contracts on the Dec 100 puts traded on the 10th, and 1 trade with 12 contracts at $8.10 yesterday. Also, there have been no contracts of this strike price and date traded today. I have verified this data from 2 seperate sources.

Are you really trading these, or are these "paper trades"?
