Very good Ryvers You have passed options 101, Break evens..... I think you can see that after reading the posts here on the thread those breakevens were very reasonable.... you can also see that I was leaning to the long side..... I had to wait for the stock to break six before profitting. Your question is an excellent one. Why not buy Aug 10 puts on a ratio rather than shorting the stock. The answer is that there in absolutely no difference at all!!!!!! I created a synthetic put position (102 puts) vs 68 calls. If i had used that ratio it would have produced the same results. However, the puts were out of line when I put the trade on, I simply made the puts synthetically at a cheaper price.
