I looked at the wall street and see the large of contracts of buying 45 put and 40 put. But if I owned the stocks, I would sell April 45 Call and buy April 40 put. Based on premiems of optin price on 8 th, I can still make about $1 for each contract of selling call and buy put if the stocks price still between 40-45.. If the stocks do go down, I will get the protection of buying put and also make money of selling call. If the stock price jump up to $46, then I did not lose any money but get the premimum of stock price increase. Under this market environment, I think this is better play for just buying put if the stock did not go anywhere. selling April 55 call do not generate enough premimum and I don't think the stock will go anywhare before next quarter come in at this stock climate.

I just sold the rest of 40 contracts call on the 8th because I felt the market condition is not good. If I see the stock drop down under $40, then I may consider to buy stock for the long term gain this time. I have been doing very good with ADBE since January of 1996. This is the most expensive stock that I buy for myself.

Good luck with all the investors in this thread.
