here's a list of QCOM options quote.cboe.com the nearest thing to "3 months" seems to be the April contract. the April 40-strike call closed friday with the ask at 6.40. back out 1.22 of intrinsic value and that's 5.18, or $518, of time premium till april. if you don't understand what this means, or are not aware that each option covers 100 shares, i wouldn't recommend buying options. it is very easy to lose money even if you understand the basics. without understanding the basics, i'd prefer my odds in Las Vegas. however, there are a lot of educational resources. some right at CBOE: cboe.com
