After Hours: The stock is UP again $20.65….where’s the Grinch when you need him ?

VLO: We bought back DEC 16 Puts today…at least that trade went our way!

I don't want to buy back the caller on Friday, when we can gain (2) free days of decay over the weekend. Radio Shack has to put on 1.4 before we start to loose & I haven't seen any unusual volume on the 20 caller yet. Besides, 20.40 would be their 52 week high! VLO: same order....buy back the short PUTs for 0.05 ThetaTrader Zuko,
