We have a small speculative bet down in the form of two January 230 calls acquired for 1.00.  Problem is, they expire on January 15, the earliest date on which an option expiration can occur, and the calls will therefore be shedding premium unless the stock rallies $6 or so per day this week.  What this implies is that the calls have almost zero chance of finishing in the money, but that we still might have a chance to pare our loss if there’s a strong thrust today. Accordingly, I’ll suggest offering the calls to close for 0.15 on the opening, but for 0.26 thereafter if the order goes unfilled. _______ UPDATE:  Our calls never regained consciousness, so we’ve booked a $200 trading loss.
