This is a question about options:

1.) Option contracts are for 100 shares... so if an option is quoted at 2, is the price of the contract $2, or $200?

2.) If I buy, for example, June 30 calls, and the stock goes to 35 prior to the strike date, can I short the stock at 35 and use the short proceeds to cover? If not, can I exercise the options and sell on the same day, using those funds to cover?

3.) Last, can I exercise a call prior to the strike date?
