joe,
Your options can be exercised at anytime is true but I know on the puts you've got till the 3rd Friday to buy the stock. I don't know if the calls work the same or not.
I also know sometimes they don't get exercised as soon as they hit. My puts feb 20's technically should have exercised at 17 3/8 or below. We spent several days there and below and nothing happened.
Getting in a hurry isn't always good either. I'm in PAIR since last Feb at 28 and change at this point but I still intend to come out with a healthy gain.
The options I'm using to bring my basis down while PAIR moves up to meet it. They'll eventually cross and I can go to black and gains.
Hang in joe! "I've learned everything I know the hard way but I've learned!" Something I heard Joey Gallo say in an interview. Makes sense to me! That's all any of this is about. The money will come if we learn!
Have a good one joe,
Jay
