Hi Rose! I do the same calculation on each of my options [(Bid+Ask)/2.] I agree it is a pain. If anyone knows of a site that does this and allows you to download the numbers, I would appreciate them letting me know. Also, I have some QCOM Jan 50 calls that I need to do something with. What does the thread think. My cost basis is about $5 each and they are currently worth about $106. They are in a taxable account so it would result in a big tax hit if I roll them out to a farther strike. This makes me lean towards exercising them. But I could gain a lot of leverage if I roll them out to LEAPS with a higher strike. I know this is a great problem to have<g>, but I would appreciate hearing opinions of others on the thread as to what they would do. Thanks, Ritch
