If I sell the Oct 17.5 @ $1 1/8, my net cost drops to $12.27. That's not bad; it'll be even better if the calls don't go much higher than that after I sell!

For the UGLY Dec calls, yes, I'll make a 12% profit if I'm called out at $15, but that wouldn't happen until I've held the position for over four months, so it's not a great return. Lombard won't let me trade options yet, so I guess I just have to wait. Too bad this is _half_ of my tiny little portfolio, though.

Doug.
