I think this trade is the worst one I've made to date. It was done out of pure panic (this was the day Starbucks announced horrible earnings ). Knowing what I know now, I wish I never did this trade. The expiration is too far out (Jan 2010) and the premium I received was too small. I'm going to close this position as soon as I can without taking a loss. I'd be ok just breaking even on it.
Instead, I want to sell covered calls on my shares with much shorter expirations and a lower strike price.
Live and learn.
