Re: "With the volatility we've seen in the markets in 1999, it has turned out to be a great year for generating cash by writing puts. You can get very nice premiums for strike prices that are 30%-40% or more below their recent highs. In may instances, it amazes me that people pay the premiums for the puts I write (got $2 yesterday for INTC Dec 60 puts, now asking $1 3/8)." They have been very good to me as well. The original poster said he would like to pick up some Intel if it dropped down to his price. I suggested he write some puts at "his price" but it seemed to go in one ear and out the other. EP
