cszulc, that was the answer to my question. So I would realize a better ROI (because of the higher delta) with less ITM calls rather than more OTM calls. I was under the train of thought that more was better. Thank you again for the reponses.

Well I won't be buying the stock because I don't have enough capital to do so and also is much more risky if it were to fall instead of just losing the premium. Buying the vertical is a good idea and I may very well do so, some Nov and Jan OTM calls. I know that time decay is a concern but I...

I see, now that makes sense. Thank you for your replies.

So it would be safe to say that even if the stock doesn't pull back the OTM Nov calls aren't really going to drop that much. Is anyone else planning on buying some Aapl calls?

I really don't think Apple will be going down, so although I appreciate your reply I wouldn't want to sell a Nov Call. I will keep that strategy in mind for other options in the future though. Any ideas on why the Nov calls over 200 are the only calls that have actually gone up when the...

Aapl Nov Calls over 200 up while every other Call and the stock itself is down? I was anticipating a drop on the Nov calls but this didn't happen. Again, any info is greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Thank you for your response. I do plan on buying a few puts just in case. An if i was up 90% I would definitely sell most and let a little ride. However is my strategy of buying the most of the cheapest calls the best for ROI?

First off I'd like to say this forum is extremely helpful and I have been lurking for a while but just recently got involved with options however I have been trading stocks for years. I have been wanting to buy some Nov calls deep OTM since 140. I waited because I thought Apple would pull...
