    Bought a few AAPL-lite (QQQ) calls instead of paying the ridiculous IV cost for AAPL calls before close. BIDU going as well tonite, will see

    • evannever: I was thinking the same thing: IV is out of control: 04/27/2012 600.00 Call is around 3.25 at close and it's 6 strikes OTM. Got one anyway

    • jimhsu: Selling put spreads (555/550) was a good way to capture earnings without paying for the IV. Position worked out nicely.
