Costco At The Start Of The Week

Recent Costco blogs have illustrated how "time values" get eaten up the closer they get to their expiracy date this Friday. Here is a five day chart mid morning on a Monday. Now this. The Costco 1,000 Call option. Costco is down $9.23 at 11:51 a.m. Now a one day chart and the closing reading on the 1000 series of Calls. This afternoon move was nothing.

Now Tuesdays closing reading.

As you can see, the 20 Calls this morning went from .06 or six dollars a contract to .61 or sixty one dollars a contract at noon! Then looked at how they ended up the day. A .06 or six dollar contract would be worth one hundred and forty three dollars! A six hundred dollar investment would be ...
