Jan of 2024 is not a year from now.  With that said, I agree that those calls are too risky if you ask me. I plan to let the market settle out or continue to go down for at least the next several days and look at the May 2022 calls. The $25 calls closed at $3.50 today. Not a bad risk reward if you think LAC can make it north of its ATH between now and next May.  This perma bull believes it will.

I was killed on my August calls but made it all back and some on my Nov $17.50 calls and my $15 Feb 2022 calls that I still own. GO LAC!!
