Delta's Anyone?
I have two different qcom options.
The Jan 02 calls strike of 125 closed up 11 1/2

The Jan 02 calls strike of 160 closed up 3 3/8 (although
bid is 3/4 higher)
The DIM call moved 3 times that of the "just out of the
money call." What did I learn from this: There was no
reason to trade in my Jan 01 @ 95 for the 02's @160.
Experience is the best teacher, expecially when the stock is going in the right direction.
Thanks,
Andy

one may also exercise a call early to capture a dividend. deep in the money puts are often exercised early to capture the cash.
