Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (AMLN)
Amylin is a biopharmaceutical company. The company currently focuses upon the discovery, development, and commercialization of drug candidates for the treatment of diabetes, and obesity.

FDA Pending News
On January 28, Amylin will attempt to begin the process in selling BYDUREON within the United States. The company has a pending FDA Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) decision for the drug as a proposed treatment for type 2 diabetes. This is a resubission of a New Drug Application (NDA) for BYDUREON.

I believe the New Drug Application for BYDUREON will be approved based upon the January 9, 2012 Amylin Pharmaceuticals Inc at J.P. Morgan Global Healthcare Conference presentation.

Action
I am only trying to earn some option premium with a tight leash on maximum loss. I am long AMLN Feb 2012 10.000 calls (AMLN120218C00010000) and short the AMLN Feb 2012 9.000 call s (AMLN120218C00009000) for a 60 cent credit per contract. My maximum loss is 40 cents per contract.
