I'm curious about your theory. Wouldn't day trading the calls in HD yield you even more profit for your money?

If the calls are out far enough you don't have to worry about expirations and the call should follow the stock point by point. So, if you get a predictable couple of points in the stock, you would get the same amount in the call.

I doubt, though, that you would get as good a market in the calls as in the stock and the call spreads would eventually eat up a really frequent trader.

I've traded the HD calls off and on profitably, but not by trading them every day. Of course, every strategy works when you are swimming with the current in a great stock like HD.

Right now I'm out and looking for an entry point.
