To Sell or Hold OTM Options Day Before Expiration

I’m holding FCEL $9 calls that expire tomorrow. Can someone give some guidance on whether I should sell them today for $.06 or hold them in case it makes another big move in the morning tomorrow?

Your break even will be at 9 by tomorrow, so the stock has to go above that for you to make a profit. If you have a big position then get out, at least partially (close 50% or more)…

thanks. Since theta is -$.06, if it opens tomorrow at the same price its trading today will it open at $0.00?

It will keep loosing value and close tomorrow at 0 (if you stay OTM), theta is spread out throughout the day.
