Bill, I just started in options. I'v got several questions if you don't mind.

1. Seems to me the best option to buy for call is slightly out of money. For example call 20 June for stock at 17. If you disagree, why?

2. Do you use stop loss if things are going away? How far back do you set the stop?

3. Time!! Three months? Four? Five? or Six? and why?

4. Sell before or after earnings? Why?
If you expect an upside surprise, why not hold through.

Thanks in advance for your response. I beleive we can learn quite a bit from this discussion.

Best wishes.
