You are wrong on this. You have completely UNLIMITED exposure in selling a naked
put. Think about it. You don't have the underlying security to protect you. The stock
price can go up infinately....One of the reasons brokerage houses discourage selling
naked puts is because the risk is SO enormous. Writing a covered call gives you mininal
risk and you can enhance your return through income.


Greg,

We are talking about writing naked puts not naked calls. Sheesh LOL. Are we cleared up on this now?

Glenn

PS So frustrating for us both LOL:-)
