<<It won't do you any good to compare a strategy requiring $100 with one that needs $1000. >> good point.

<<However, with OTM calls, the stock needs to go up more to break even.>> don't take me wrong. i was baffled with the same problem: how to calculate the probability of success (for the risk-to-reward) with increasing delta of OTM. I am planning to run some random simulations using the actual data.
thanks for the suggestions.
