I would like to see the stock drop below $19 but above $18.50.

15:14 - Stock price hovers around $18.50 so at the close the $18.50 contracts could be exercised. Either outcome would be fine for me.

After market close:

AEO $18.50 contracts finished, in-the-money, which means I’ll be assigned 700 shares of AEO stock at $18.50/share. I’ve received a little over $1,000 on contracts sold so I’m very happy with that.

I’m hoping I’ll be able to sell $18.50 CALL contracts money.
