Hi Cal,
next time I do some move, I will definitely consult your crystal ball first :-). It looks like, I am not going to buy those $30 dec calls back, which is of course pitty, but that is a life. It was a fast speculative trade and I was not willing to leave the profit on the table over the weekend.
Regarding covered calls - I have sold a bit of $50 Dec call. I still hold an opinion, that LAC will not add another 30% till the YE, but who knows in these day...
