I wasn't really asking for specific advice.
I think I worded my question wrong.
I really wnat to know do options automaticly go down each day as they get near earnings.
I have never held any options later than 3 weeks before exp.

I still don't understand how this works when options get near exp. I don't see how they figure the amount that they go down.

Let me give you an example and see if you can answer this way.
Lets say I have call options on xyz stock and they expire in two weeks. I am in the money on these options. Will my options go down even though I am in the money?

thanks
dawg

Hi Jill,
Just a quick general question...

Is the thread getting away from options on Gorillas and Kings? I'm noticing a fair amount of discussion about options on non-gorilla/king stocks, most recently biotech stocks among other princes and "shiny pebbles".

Just wondering,

JB
