113? That would be the day. But check this out; If you write a short straddle (Dec)for BRCM @ 150.00, you will pick up $20.00 per contract on the Dec 150call and $18.00 on the Dec 150put (RDWLJ and RDWXJ respectively) finance.yahoo.com If BRCM>150.00 on Dec expiration date you will walk home with $28.00 less BRCM@ 150, say 100 shares. And now for the clincher...drum roll please... If BRCM<150.00 on Dec expiration date it will be put to you @ $150.00. Subtract the $28.00 (from the put/call straddles) and just bought BRCM at 112!! Is that good or what! Note: commissions are less than $200 and the option prices are quotes for today only.
