When do the options you alert on expire? Are they LEAP options?


ReturnAlert primarily sends alerts for the near-term and following month options. As the next option expiration date approaches, the value that the market is willing to pay for call options starts to drop dramatically. A few years ago we saw that drop point typically happen around two to three weeks out from the expiration date. Now, that drop point tends to be at three to four weeks from expiration date. What has happened since that time is a bit more of a cautious approach has spread through the options market. Few investors are willing to pay high values for options that are set to expire in only a few weeks.

Writecall's alerted options are not LEAP options.
