here's a good article about buying google calls, or various google calls strategies this week. He has some strategies which I didn't copy but are in the blog. Google Call -- An Update Posted on Sep 12th, 2006 with stocks: GOOG Phil Davis submits: The other day we talked about how the low volatility of Google’s stock in the past 2 months was unsustainable, giving us a good opportunity to pick up some cheap options. Now that the stock is up $13 in 2 days, it might be a good time to check up on our theory while it’s still in the works. We got a nice warning sign yesterday that something was up as volume ticked back up over 5M shares (and this is 5M very expensive shares!) on a strong move up. This recent move (in the price change) increases the “implied volatility” of the stock and drives up contract prices—to our benefit since we bought when volatility was low. The stock has moved to the top end of its August range, and looks ready to test the 200 DMA at $394. A break above that can send us off to the races: internet.seekingalpha.com
