I now understand what you were referring to however respectfully I don't subscribe to the idea that more options on issue has effected their price.

If the company hits targets well within the expiry dates they are in the money..If the company does not than they flander..You could double or halve the options on issue and I don't think it would make 1 trade or dollar difference..All dependant on meeting targets.

All the best though if you decide to grab some options or ordinary shares again.
