BAC (current price $15.14)
STO (40) 10-09-15 $14.00 Puts @ .04 (+$160)
BTO (5) 10-09-15 $15.oo Call @ 0.36 (-$180)
================
Sell (5) 10-09-15 $15 Calls @ 0.72 = $360 (doubled my money, gain $180)
This "ask" on the $14 puts is only 0.01, so, the $160 is still in my pocket.
Net gain $180 + $160 = $340.

=====================================
Ha!
I forgot! I changed the BTO order on Friday to 10-16-15 which is now 0.68 (worth $204).
I'd still have a gain, but only $39. After commissions, not much. Net gain drops to $199
LESSON LEARNED! Stick with the short term, current week!

Ditto!
You're gonna get screwed on the 2 week options.
Better to trade current week.
Ask $176 on DOW 10-16-15s
Ask $200 on DOW 10-09-15s

Ok. Now, I''m witnessing MMs CHEATING on option prices.
Or is it that I don't understand?
DOW has moved up 30 cents in the last 40 minutes, but the option price has not gone up.
Weird.

STO (20) 10-09-15 DOW 40 Puts @ .08 = +160
BTO (1) 10-16-15 DOW 44.00 Call @ 1.34 = -134
DOW @ $46.50!
Sell DOW 44 10/16/15 call @ $2.41
1.34-2.41 = Net gain on call = $107
Plus $160 on puts - (160+107) Net gain = $267 (unless DOW drops below $40 in next 3 days)
