COMMENTS:
I was VERY surprised to see my call's premium drop so much in the after-hours market. My initial plan was to buy back the short call at $0.05 sometime tomorrow (expiration day), but Wall Street gave me a surprise gift!
Depending on what happens tomorrow (Oct 28), I may or may not reuse my long call ("wing") and sell (to open) another OTM call option.
For now, I am VERY happy that I made $75 in just 13 minutes!
