Almost everyone who buys calls gets torched.
Here's how I buy them and actually come out ahead.
The killer is theta. Buy a short dated call and the clock drains it every single day the stock doesn't take off.
So I refuse to play that game.
When I buy a call, it's a LEAP. One to two years out, bare minimum.
That long runway means theta barely touches it day to day, and the company gets real time for earnings to grow & the share price to follow the EPS.
And I only buy them on great companies at good prices..
I'm not buying a Friday lottery ticket like most ppl.
I'm buying time on a great company I have real conviction in.
