Andrew - I played the same game a few months ago. It can get the heart pumping.

Right now I am sitting on 10 65s sold a couple of weeks ago at $1.40 (if I remember correctly). Still sitting on them. My bet is that the stock closes below $65.

But if it looks like it will be closing just above $65 today, I would have a choice to let it go (stock is in my IRA, so no tax consequence) or buy back the option for the difference.

What I do will depend on what I think the stock price will do next week going into earnings. If I were forced to bet, I would bet it will drift lower.

Will wait until 12:45p pdt to begin to decide.
