A decent option play on MTSN. If one has confidence that MTSN is heading higher from here the best option play would be the Jan. 12 1/2's . Currently trading at 3 5/8 by 3 3/4. These options are already 2 1/4 points in the money. A move to 18 By January options expiration would make a nice profit. These options may lack liquidity but the time value premium will actually increase if the stock rises rapidly. As I work it out buying three contracts at 4 for $1200.00 dollars, would be more profitable than buyin a hundred shares of stock. I realize that many posters on this thread don't trade options, but investing a small percentage of ones capital in options can yield significant bottom line appreciation to ones portfolio. FWIW, Jerome
