I am looking into trading options for the first time. I am wondering if someone can help me understand why there is a difference in relative prices among the different call option strike prices. For example: Apr 97 155 trading at 9 1/2 (stock price needs to go up to 164 1/2 before it is in the money). However Apr 97 140 trading at 15 5/8 (stock price needs to go up only to 155 5/8 before it is in the money) It seems like it would be best to buy the higher priced 140s. What's the catch? Am I missing something? Would someone please clarify my thought process? Appreciate your help. Naveen Raja
