Michael, On IOMG Options

What I didn't understand was the side of your first move. i.e. Selling Puts on IOMG, while our 'market guessing' showed us strong reasons for a downward direction played by the pros. At the time you sold those puts I would have bought them...

Even today the pressure coming from traders is still way down and still very profitable to them. The dip was almost $10 today. The only surprise to me was that the attack stopped when the price hit $36 3/8 instead of the usual $36 (coming from $55 less $10 plus $1). The usual mid-curse set took place ~$40 as expected but was weak. Right now the stock is testing $39 (the one dollar buffer zone) though still in the buffer. That is the second day in a raw we had the same $10 plunge trader initiated. May be we will see another one tomorrow ? Since the price went so much overboard according to any reasonable estimate ... and professionals. Why didn't you played those $10 plunges ? by staying on the side of traders buying puts & selling them as the day bottom is in sight.
