Options Question
When will more longer-term LEAP options be available?
I like the time frame and reduced volatility of long-term options, but I'm waiting for some of my favorites to release new LEAP options. When can I expect them?

You’re in luck; you'll soon be able to buy another whole year of time with another round of Long-Term Equity Anticipation Securities, or LEAPS.
The 2011 LEAPS will begin trading in September. The LEAPS release cycle is below:
Cycle 1 on Sept. 15 (2011 LEAPS begin trading for January cycle option classes.)
Cycle 2 on Oct. 13 (2011 LEAPS begin trading for February cycle option classes.)
Cycle 3 on Nov. 17 (2011 LEAPS begin trading for March cycle option classes.)
