A little challenge while we wait for OE on Friday - Optionray - 12-19-2012

If you bought a Dec 22 $60 call today for .55c and on Friday the stock price is $65.00.  What is your rate of return?

Buy the January $60 call - you'll pay more but the sell-down will likely not be announced until 3 weeks after the PNG-IOC negotiations are announced. AIMHO.

Higher, anyone else?   Extra credit if you show your work Smile

interesting, because if you use an optioncalculator it says  around 5 so I also would say 900%+..but its only on 4 days..so if you want it annulized..

5.00 / 0.55 = 9.1 or 910% (trading fees not included as they were not provided).... Just for fun, annualized return would 910% x (365/4) = 83,038%  (copied Bdahls answer from yahoo)
