I went ahead and bought 20 Aug. 25 call options at 7/16 the other day. I know it's risky based on your reply, but I felt that it was a good investment according to the dip in the stock price. Also, the last two months similar dips occurred in the stock price at least two weeks before expiration with the stock price recovering the week of expiration.

Currently, the options closed at 3/4 with an ask of 5/8. Hopefully, we will continue the recovery here.

Peter: I also compared the Dec and March 30 calls and it looks like you paid about an extra buck and change for the March calls. Worth it, IMO, but a bit more than 1/8....it is only 1/8 off of what you paid because they have both appreciated since you bought the March 30's.
