not sure I understand what you wrote here, if the stock was at $10 and you were holding the $8 strike, the call would be $2.00 at time of exp, not .20, unless Im reading what you typed wrong

generally speaking exercising options isnt worth even thinking about. you are much better off daytrading in and out of them, in my opinion.

Im going to do a little more research on the matter in case Im missing any benefits, but I dont think I am.
