"If I am right, and the puts were done at about 18 1/2, the buyers wouldn't actually begin to lose money until they declined in value to about 11 1/2. I just checked the bid and it's at 11 7/8. So I would expect a spirited defense of the 11 1/2 level. After Friday, it won't matter. "

HOWEVER, John, I think you may be omitting one key point: The put/hedge owner is not only concerned with NOT showing a loss on those puts, they'd like to see the puts expire as deep in the money as possible.
