Hi Ironchef, you are absoulately right about trend/direction,I think oil will go up more, but not right away, that is why I don't want any long call options less than Jan 2018. That gives me 18 months to be right about direction. I will also buy DITM with mim. delta of 95, this is almost like...

I now prefer the longer DITM LEAPS with a Delta above 90 that way Theta is not much of a factor. OTM leaps have worked well for me also but I bought most of them in Jan, Feb. March of this year and that was a unique time period that does not come around to often. COBE will be posting 2019 leaps...

I am mostly in cash except for 2018 long calls, hoping for a pullback soon as I would like to buy a large block of BP or RDS/A, before X-day , sell August 19 covered call at about $2.00 OTM, if I don't get called away I will hold thru X-day and collect the dividend, if my stock gets called away...

I started buying long calls in Feb this year in RDS/A & BP about $5.00 OTM , so far every one of them has been profitable, I continue to sell them when up & try to buy back at a lower price when oil prices fall, about once ever 10 days. I think there is still room for a lot of up direction with...
