Not sure what you're saying here(?). That selling the puts might not get the stock? If so, true; but selling the put is equivalent (same profit graph) to writing a covered call. Of course if I don't get the stock I can console myself with the preemie. On the other side, Oct30 puts Friday traded 1/8 bid-3/8 ask (I think, this is from memory, but about that); cheap insurance. Every now and then I go read the Big Kahuna thread to keep my natural puppy-dog-like enthusiasm from completely taking over, so insurance makes sense to me. If you meant something else, I missed it. I'm still very much feeling my way here. Thanks for the comments.
