jbn3 <<DELL OPTIONS 101: Wait until after earnings, and the price frequently drops a bit. That's when to buy the call options or LEAPs. I bought the AUG 95s @ 3 5/8 back in June--only wish I had 100!!! >>

For my own option education and future reference would you mind answering the following?

Where was dell when you bought the options? I see the June range was roughly 78-94.

I'm trying to see how far out of the money they were when you bought them compared to the cost. Naturally I assume you bought them at the low? :~) Was the plan to keep them until Aug earnings?

Thanks for the info. My problem with options is trying to understand and justify the high premiums on the farther out months and out of the money strike prices, especially on the leaps.

Thanks
Dan
