RE: DIA

Posted by Jack Haddad on January 14, 2008 at 11:07 am

Sold the 13 blocks I added on 1/10/08 at 22.99.  I had bought the shares at 22.44.  Also, bought back 1300 Jan strike 22.50 calls at .94/contract.  I had written the contracts at .78/contract.  My net gain for this transaction is .39 cents/share times 130,000 shares.  Since there was only 1 week left to expiration, the decay on the time value of the calls helped tremendously in this upside, thus locking a good profit. 

Be advised I still own 14 blocks.

I think you mean .39 dollars/share

.39 cent would literally mean less than 1 cent a share. You mean $0.39
