Maybe you're right. So the March 300's, then? They were popular today.

Hi Volty, I'm no options academic, but I've got to express my respectful disagreement with you regarding JDSU options. The reason is this: I think that, while JDSU has shown amazing strength in blowing through its all time high yesterday, it may be well into its presplit run. It splits 2:1 on March 10 and there's no telling where it will go immediately post-split, so I think OTM Mar calls carry some risk. There's been speculation about addition to the S&P for months now, so buying OTM calls on that possibilty is rather risky, IMO. All that said, I love JDSU and would be a buyer of the common or a FEW DIM (deep in the money) Mar calls at this point. All JMHO, as always.
