<<It would be interesting to know the strategies behind the positions posted on this thread.>> To get called out (just to take a different position from dUF) For example, today: bought GMST @ 10.15 sold QLFKU @ 4.20 (Nov 7.5 calls) If called out in 217 days, return is 25% Breakeven 5.98 (40% downside protection) Could someone with access to a probability calculator run the numbers on that for me? The probability calculator that McMillan's site provides won't run on my Mac, but I think the odds are good that I will get called. (Of course, I thought that would also be the case when I bought BEAS @16.70 and sold June 15 calls @ 5 last November)
