A strategy that I have used quite successfully in the last year to build a biotech portfolio has been to start with small long positions and also use short puts, and short and long calls. Over time, I've lightened or added to the positions to lock in profits, but always maintained a short put position to stay in the stocks I like.

With the latest downturn put premiums are looking attractive for some of my favorite stocks. These include; CELG, INCY, GLIA, IMNX, CLTR, IDPH & CORR. Will be looking a the short puts for these stocks next week with interest. CELG should be active as it starts trading post-split on Monday. Don't forget April options expiration is next Thursday with Friday being a holiday.

Cheers, Mike
