I don't think this is the best way to profit David. It is much easier to make it big with juniors than with options. Much much easier.

Agreed Taikun. Thanks, I'll look into them.

I've played PM calls twice this summer.

Bought Goldcorp Jan 05 $12.50 calls for 80 cents a while back. Sold them at $1.50 but they ran to over $2 before backing off again.
I bought these after reading one of the revered analysts mention them. Never done options prior to that.

Also bought Western Silver Mar 05 $7.50 calls at $1.25. They dropped to 65 cents ( :-( ) but then ran to over $3. Sold them at $2.

Calls are a great way to highly leverage the moves in PM with minimal exposure.

Keep the great thread information flowing. We are a very small group of investors and can do very well if we share this sort of information.
