Option commission is higher for me too, and the spread stinks,
but IF I'm right I can make up for it, and tie up less capital.
Bigger ouch when wrong though.....

I've been setting targets for the index and guestimating
a target for the option based on that, putting in a limit
order, then letting it trade up or down into my price.
I don't have real-time quotes for options, so I don't really
know if I'm getting good fills.

Most of my effort up until now has been towards getting the price
direction right, just starting to work on better trading tactics.
