Maybe Santa Claus is giving me a belated XMAS present of early assignment of all the Jan and Feb PUTs I'm short at strikes of 12.5 and 15. I'm carrying the 12s on my books at $0; and it's looking as if I'd be safe to do the same with the 15s. I may have to go out and sell another batch before the premiums disappear, altogether. But my broker is a real pain to try to do business with lately. I can't get options quotes through the Web interface within an hour of open; and my direct line to a trader gives me music on hold. There's got to be a better way. Best wishes, Ian.
