Can you define a "covered put" please? Would that be shorting the stock, then selling a put? Or is that putting a pile of cash aside to pay for the stock? <G> These are naked puts. Selling March 60 puts is pretty much like buying the stock, except that I get cash instead of paying it out. In fact, if I buy some March 60 calls, I have the same position as if I buy the stock except that I still have cash and I don't get dividends (but there aren't any). Carl
