The option price isn't just where the stock is but also includes a little bit of where the guys in Chi-town think it's headed in the next hour or two. I've just about given up on the limit orders.

Guys took me for over 1/2 of a point on my sale of some options that were almost 10 points in the money on thursday -- one day before exp. I guess they thought the stock was going up. <g> (It went down on Fri -- of course.)

I thought the arbitrageurs would keep this from happening so close to expiration.

Still getting an education
