In-the-money strike price

When buying call options, the in-the-money strike prices will not wear away as quickly as the out of the money or at the money options. In fact, you probably don't want to buy too deep in the money call as they are very expensive. The whole idea of option is to use less money than buying the underlying stock. An advantage of choosing an in the money call is that a moderate move in the underlying stock can still bring you profits.
