The Smart PlayThe only real smart way to play this disaster is to use gambling money.
I have loaded up on calls, and now have exposure to the upside on 50,000 shares.
Yes, I could lose my entire investment, but I only used gambling money.
But, if the Trader deal closes, the share price should take a nice pop, and those calls could double or triple in value in a heartbeat.
If I had bought shares, I would have 8 times the money at risk, and there is no way I would do that.
Sure beats doubling down, and repeating that mistake over and over. And it beats BioBully's "genius" play of buying a hundred shares and covering his "fortune" with calls.
