lwolf re:"sell the option when the stock reaches x"

not a good method, sell the option when the option reaches the price you desire/require...remember options are linked with the underlying, but only very close strike/expiration move proportionately with the underlying...depending on pereceived volatility at a point in time, the option premium can explode/deteriorate...lead/lag...for it has a mind of its own...and a bid/ask just as the stock...remember the options trader cranks in a volatility factor taking strike/time in to account...

control your option orders as you would a stock order...

good luck, ed a.

Cost with Fidelity was the same as two executions (which it was) with a representative, even though there was more work on their part as they had to sychronize the two.
