Closing Transaction - Intel (INTC)

I closed both of my positions in Intel on October 15 somewhat by accident, as I had only intended for them to sell if I could gain all of the remaining time value in the sale. Unfortunately, the order was entered incorrectly as a net debit instead of net credit. Luckily, I only lost out on a few dollars in the mix-up. I would be happy to re-enter a position in Intel in the future if it falls back under $20 as I believe the company is solid, and has consistently beat earnings estimates the last few quarters along with having a good yield. The final profit/loss info is below:

8/24/2009 -- Sold To Open 1 INTC October $18 Call @ 1.50
