 Whoops!! Sorry about the typo.  I left off the "0" (zero)  The "(1)" should say "(10)".

  (Next day)
 
 STO - 10-02-15 17.00 call @ .21 (10) +210  (expired worthless.  I pocket $210.)
 STO 10-02-15 10.00 puts @0.03 (20) + 60   (expired worthless.  I pocket $ 60.)
 
 Gain = $270
 But I'm still out $230 for the 10-09-15 $16.50 call, which doesn't expire until 10-16-15.  
 MU is currently $15.46.
 Given that the market is down, & I don't think MU will be over $16.50 next week, I'll sell for $120 today.
 So, my loss on the bullish option is $110.
 $270(gain)
 -$110 (loss)
 ___________
 Net gain - $160

 Sorry!  That was a typo.  Obviously, the 10-09-15 call expires on the 9th, not the 16th.  LOL!
