If an option is quoted as $1.50 for an April 40 call is that really for 100 shares so my real cost would be $150 plus the commision, so another $7 or $8? And when the open interest for that same contract is 1,800 does that mean it would cost me $270,000 to buy all open contracts at the $1.50 price?
