Gabriel, thanks for the discussion. Those bid and asks had to have updated after I bought because I'm quite certain they were not identical between december and march, otherwise I would have bought March. If I remember right, there was about a 20-30 cent difference between December and March calls when I bought, and even more for the later years. I'm hoping for a quick uptick in gold price within the next month, and I'll profit as long as IAG gets above $1.60 or so.
I am very new to options trading so I appreciate any insight. I've been trading stocks for seven years and have done several covered calls, but this is only my second non-covered call option trade. I'm sure I still have a lot to learn.
