Brudiver, options can be tricky, that's for sure. I've had better luck lately writing covered calls. 19 Apr expiry covered calls with POZN and GTXI have done okay, with current pps of both suggesting I won't get called for my shares--leaving my shares intact to write new May covered calls.
Alas, I don't have the investable cash to buy into Google enough to write one contract. Perhaps sometime in the future.
