Out of curiosity, did anyone follow and make $$ on any of these calls?

I followed some of them but I don't really short individual stocks either. Most of my really biggest losses have come from that.
Looks like you did well on most of these though.

Same here, mostly just trade the efts for short...currently dxd, sds (very small pos), qid and uxvy (wish I had added early on Fri, but oh well). also have lots of trouble with entries/exits on these; out of practice since 2008/09. Congrats to you huh! Awesome job.

Probably goes without saying, but I'd recommend covering all these shorts at the open. I'll update the final gains in each later today.

All short calls now updated
At least at the time I checked each, all but one of them were now higher than the open (OMER was the exception). That's amazing when you stop to think about it - and very telling.
Although I figured the positions closed at the opening print, waiting a minute or two (which is more realistic considering the problems brokers had today) would have gotten even better gains, and in some cases quite a bit more.
That's 26 short calls now closed
Average gain: 26% Success Rate: 100%
Eat your hearts out Hedge Funds (and consider this my resume!) Bwahahaha

A couple of them could still be held short, and are still no where near their downside targets. But I'm relieved to be done with tracking them. One of them, HAL, finally hit the long term downside target after posting about it on April 17th. Check out how awesome that pattern played out for a 35% gain in four months. Remember how the long call in C recently took 4 months for only a 5% gain? That's what I was talking about all along. Bulls have been getting screwed since spring.
