The reason for not buying the stock is it can cost too much money for too little potential reward. For example on those GLD calls I bought, It only cost me $5000 for the calls. Buying that much GLD outright would have cost me $113,000. If I bought $5000 of GLD outright instead of the calls, the percentage move in GLD to make $500 would be so large as to be impossible for a daytrade.
