LLOYD, SPENT LAST TWO HOURS DECIDING WHAT IF....
for fun only...what would you do
sold may 15 puts short..means they put it to me at 15 next friday at 4 p.m.
sold the june 12.50 calls short..means sold them without the stock..naked
sold the june 15 puts short. meaning they put it to me at 15
bought the june 15 calls to protect a move over 15 against my shorts
stock stays at 12 ..fine
if we see 14 by tuesday what would you do?
forget the costs involved
just the move that is best if stock is 12, 13, 14 15 next week
i like a move to 15 so i do not have to buy the may 15 puts
then after expiration in may.. a move to 12.50 and buy back my 12.50 short calls
then a move to 15 before june expiration and keep the june 15 put money
i can dream can't i??<grin>
