Thanks for the information, with everybody and brother trying to sell you an options course, this was a very valuable reply to my question. Also thanks for the options information that i received for subscribing to the White Cap Report. Once again thanks, sincerely Dennis Segerson

Dennis, If you've never studied options and are looking for a great place to begin your options education, try the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE). They have great online classes from beginners all the way up to savvy traders. Check out the CBOE's Options Institute Plus. The LEAPS course you mention is actually a trading service, called The 400 Report, directed by Karim Rahemtulla that will send alerts to your email when LEAP option plays emerge. Thank you, Investment U

Time decay, especially after expiration of conventional options, and when options positions are rolled over. To see what I mean, just take note of some stock prices on expiration Friday, and how the prices of the ITM and OTM options reacts the following Monday in relation to the stock moves.

Karim, thanks for the explanation of the pricing of leaps, I always wondered how the prices were determined for a security a year from now.
Maybe a portfolio of leaps could be added to the Oxford club offerings, I for one would be interested in it.

I understand the philosophy behind LEAPS, but did not quite get the actual mechanics of the transactions from the article.
