UF, thanks. I should have clarified a bit in the sense that I was comparing buying 1000 shares or 10 LEAPS/calls, then your return would be roughly equivalent although you percentage returns are different. You are definitely right in saying that if one were to use up all of your capital in buying the calls/LEAPS, then you returns are magnified almost exponentially as you say. A rather aggressive step, but definitely doable with a gorilla. Hmmm... you are giving me ideas. Later
