Mark, I just calculated the implied volatility in LU options and they are in the 42% to 45% range.

It starts to be viable to buy & write option.

My general approach is that you can not be right on the stock movements and the actual change in price. Writing options puts or calls gives you the margin of error and still be ahead.
