Ok, first I doing all thing from paper trading to test how options work. I experiment with SBUX starbucks. I brought one put and 2 calls on different days. What would be my next time based on the screen shot if I wanted to make a profit. I have not yet read all the aspect of options, but will do later. So in the mean time I wanted to test out the waters. Please take a look at the screen shot and let me know what you think.
How closely do you follow your positions ? Exposures ? What have you learned from your 2 positions ? This is the next step for you. Experiment, But not blindly. I'd suggest you to read Natenberg (Option, Volatility & Pricing)
