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.

DOW - current price $44.10
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)

Sell DOW 44 10/16/15 call @ $2.41
1.34-2.41 = Net gain on call = $107
=========================
Next Day: 10-06-15
Bid: 2.77 Ask 3.70
Okay, so I could've sold it for more $$ BUT, the spread is AWFUL.
Lesson Learned! Check the spreads B4 U buy!
