The moderator removed my old post.

Here is my position on $BE so far, today's price movement put me on a maintenance call.

I've been selling naked ITM puts as well for big losses.
Here is my margin call from just after today's market close.

I am going to keep holding $BE through this if I can.
I won't be able to fulfill another maintenance call after this one, so $BE has to hold.

I will sell covered calls up until earnings to try and reduce my exposure and mitigate any further margin calls.

I'm hoping 240 will act like a support and hold.

This is a lesson to those who think shares are not as dangerous as FD options.

I will post an update after $BE earnings end of this month.

Godspeed my fellow regards.
