Agreed and thank you for pointing out the obvious. My earlier comment was influenced by my contempt for shorters and posted as an emotional reaction. I have been researching STL with the consideration of purchasing. I mistakenly thought the current share price was 34 cents not 3.4 cents. Clearly the option strategy explained earlier will not have any effect until the share price is around 13 to 15 cents.
