Here's a question I should know the answer to, but, apparently I haven't paid enough attention: About how far before expiration do you start to see decay of time value? I'm long DIS at a nut of 23.5 and short the Jan-30 calls. I'm wondering if I'll get a chance soon to close the position. It has shown a bit more strength than I anticipated. The one thing going for me right now is the fact that DIS has some serious overhead resistance at 30, but, the market is all hyped up over Toy Story 2 and if it does well through Christmas with lots of ticket and toy sales the market might push DIS up through 30. One movie is a drop in the bucket for a company as large as DIS, but, the market seems to really be latching on to Toy Story 2 and Who Wants to be a Millionaire even though DIS said at last earnings conference that they expect flat earnings through next fiscal year. Take care all, mc
