Hello All, On tuesday I decided to write the DEC feb 40 calls (5), thus lowering my avg. cost to 36.25. My timing was quite off since the stock rose $4.5 for no apparent reason. My question is the following, is their an optimal time to roll over? I sold the contracts for 3 and they are now trading 4 7/8- 5 1/4. The march 40 are trading at 5 3/4- 6 1/4. Is there a way to know when I will likely have the stock called away? still enjoying the learning experience, Norm.
