covered call price drop

OK, let's look at the first post one more time:

So he/she is saying that it seems strange that the stock went up today, yet the call price stayed the same as yesterday.

Now, please, show me where in that post noob_trad3r askes or even mentions profit/loss!?

 

do you make a difference between call and covered call?

 

The calls should be winners on themselves if we don't count the delta move!? WTF?

I guess applying the same logic, the calls should be losers on themselves if we don't count the volatility move and time decay, huh!?

 

Ok, granted the thread name "covered call price drop" is a bit misleading. However, the actual question in the post is simply about the call price and the reason behind the fact that its price didn't change despite the rise in the stock price. The fact that it is a covered call or a naked short/long is completely irrelevant.

 

are you asking about the covered calls,or only half of the position-only your short calls?

 

That's such a minor detail!

To quote spartacus, you're a real wind up!

Hmmm, is that some sort of watch???
