An error made in this LONG SHOT video will confuse the novice option investor. He states the 9 dollar strike Ford call bought at 38 cents would buy 2,631 call options for 1000 dollars. An option contract at 38 cents equates to a cost of 38 dollars per contract which means for 1,000 dollars 26 contracts can be bought not 2,631 or 26.31the true profit for the 9 dollar strike with Ford at 10 is 2600 dollars not 2631.00, the $10 strike at 21cts=47calls, the profit with Ford at 11 is 4700
