Dave, With your forecast of the 1999 LEAPS over $30 expiring worthless have you sold naked calls on AMAT. I recently sold the January 1999 60 calls naked and collected over a $3 premium. I noted that these are now trading for 1 9/16. The following premiums are now available for the January 1999 LEAPS: 30call 6 35call 4 3/4 40call 3 3/4 50 call 2 1/2. I have also considered a spread stategy which will work very good if the stock doesn't move into the mid 50s. Sell 2 50 calls for every 40 call that you purchase. Good luck in your trading.
