I understand what you were intending to say much better now thanks yliu075.
The premium comes and goes so there are plenty of opportunities to buy options without the premium but I also agree that the premium has been much higher in recent days.
I must say that when I purchased my last lot of options they were at a discount to the heads so I could have actually purchased the options, exercised them then sold the heads and made a profit without the share price changing at all.
Sorry if I misunderstood your intent.
