ok Mr. Niceguy...lemme see if I have this straight.

If I WRITE (not buy) the June $30.00 put contract against 500 shares of AMD.....I instantly pocket the $2.80 premium ($1400 total). Then on the third week of June...if AMD closes at $29.9999 or less......I must sell my shares at that price.

Do I have this correct?
This seems like a nice way to get more upside on AMD with no cash outlay given my feeling that this stock is on its way up. As you may remember I am level 1 options so I cannot BUY options....I can only write covered options. Any advice?

Thanks,

Jason
