Trade

First for some accounting...
Prior to yesterday, the cash in my fictitious account was $9,175.
Then Yesterday I bout RMBS puts for a total of $6,600.
This leaves me with a balance of $2,575 to play with.

I'm going to put this money towards STLW calls.

At the open today I'm buying The STLW AUG 70's (Ticker: SZQHN).
Right now LAST:15/16 BID:9/16 ASK:1 1/16

I'm hoping to get the LAST price. However, I would (realistically) probably pay the ASK price seeing how beaten up it's been the past two days. (I'm expecting buyers to be jumping in.)

If I get the ASK price, I'm figuring to buy 24 contacts for a total price of $2550 leaving me with only $25 in my account.

Hopefully I will get to see the actual Call prices shortly after the open...

I plan on making this a day trade. Probably will sell this position on any pop in price.
