As i see it the options have a running "time value" and an instrinsic value which is what is stockprice -18$ If time is up only the instrinsic value is left. So the option value is always higher than stockprice -18$ but if the end is coming soon the time value gets less ans less.
Timevalue left + stockprice -18$= pps for the option. This counts for 1:1 ones..i dont know if you aswell have 1:10 ones there if so then 0.10* -18$ takes place for instrinsic value..
If you have any questions you can e-mail me...cannot pm at the moment, still in "dont want to trust ihub aversie.." LOL
---------------------------------------------------------------- Those are the two i own...there are explanations aswell caluculators etc..maybe it helps to understand a bit.
