However, I sold the position in four days. My strategy is to take a profit when I&#8217;m happy with the return. Palantir stock continues to go up as I write but I don&#8217;t care. Buying options can be very dangerous if you get greedy. If the stock moved down, with<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mainstbeatswallst.com\/?page_id=444\"> Time Decay<\/a><\/span>, the stock might not recover enough to get the profit back. When buying options it&#8217;s very important to understand Time Decay and how it eats up the premium with time.<\/p>\n<p>I bought the position for $1350 and sold four days later for $1755 for a profit of $405. That is a Return on Investment (ROI) of +28.8%. This was a great trade and it would have been a good one for Grasshoppers.<\/p>\n<p>Any questions on this trade send me an email.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Successful trading,<\/p>\n<p>Steve<\/p>\n<p><em>The Options Coach<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past Monday, Nov 11th, I bought 3 Call options on Palantir (PLTR).
