I'm going to go for some 03 leaps - but think I will wait till the 3rd or 4th and see how this mkt shakes out before doing anything of a longer term nature. right now , my only goal is to unwind these OEX calls. next time I have a plan like this , i.e., waiting for an event such as end of month mark ups, I will just sell the position at a loss and reload closer to the event... those OEX options have absolutely zip for shelf life... and I knew that... but thought I could take the risk anyway fortunately , I more than made up the loss with puts... but it's never fun to lose any money
