RE: It's also not bad when the contract expires unexecuted as the premium you've been paid is pure fun money I must not be understanding this part right. 1) AIM says sell 100 shares at $30 2) Instead of selling, you hold the shares and sell a CALL contract. You get some extra cash. 3) The price declines and the contract expires. It seems to me you are still holding shares AIM wanted to sell, but now they are at a lower price. Haven't you subverted the original AIM sale in exchange for some CALL premium?
