Got stopped out of my position at 7900 and sold the dec 8100 option for 3300 for a profit of $1000 on the option but a $1500 loss on the futures contract.
AD sold off major much more than I expected. We are down a total of about $1800 on this trade.
I will buy AD again when we see the trend start to change...which should be shortly
