Can't remember when we had the discussion but were the calls you were looking at October or November expiration?

You also had to deal with time decay/volaility

What was mind boggling today was how amazon got slammed in after hours then recovered essentially all; apple almost a no reaction.

Interesting stats regarding election outcome and it's effect on the markets:

"When the incumbent Democrat loses, the market falls 10.2%."

"Between 1948 and 2011, when an incumbent Democrat wins, the market returns, on average, 16.8% in the post-election year."
