I opened up an options account last week. Still barely know anything about options but what I do know, is that if the company stock goes up 2x, then the right options pick are going up by at least 5x.
I'm going to look into the January or March 2010 calls for Citigroup.....right now the January 2010 $10 calls are going for 9 cents a contract. I'm no expert on options, but if Citigroup hits $10 by January I'd imagine I could sell them for at least 75 cents a contract (8x investment).
But don't quote me on it cause I definitely know little to nothing about options. On a scale of 0-100, where 100 equals complete understanding of options, I probably rank in around 3 or 4!!
