OT Please advice Gentle Readers, I have never bought or sold options before...However about 3 months ago I purchased 900 shares of a stock (lets say AOL or AMTD) which has had a nice run up. I would like to purchase some PUT options to insure my gains in case the stock turns and goes lower than it is today. My question is, how should I judge what price and which expiration date to select ...should I buy JAN00 PUT options equal to today's price?? This will cover me in case the stock turns, and also it will make this a long term capital gain (longer than a year)..... Any advice would be greatly appreciated..... Henrick
