Hi Onepath... I tried to figure out the leverage of TRX warrants now, but it gave me a head-ache. I wouldn't doubt that TCM warrants offer better leverage. So good luck !

But I did sell 4 naked Jan $13 puts at $4. Here's how I see it:

Maximum profit.. I get to keep the entire proceeds of the sale $1600.... if the stock is trading above $13 per share in January (The year's high was over $16)

If the price goes up from here, the margin requirement might increase because it's based on 50% of the stock price. The present margin requirement is:

100% of the premium..................... $1600
50% of the underlying..50%*9.30*400 =$1860

So the maximum yield would be $1600/$3460 = over 46% for about six months.

I hope toowit (or somebody) reads this and tells me where it's wrong ! Cant't be too careful with naked puts !
