OT Puts For what it's worth... You can sell puts after you have shorted a stock. These are then considered "covered" puts instead of "short" puts or "naked" puts. Some short sellers do this to get another dollar or two out of their position. TP

lof...ot ot ot "let's not spread misinformation" how is selling naked puts near term bearish??????????? the only way you make money on a put sale is if the stock has a neutral to upward bias during the term of the contract....therefore it is a bullish strategy...and if you sell current expiration, as in february, there is no near or long term.......are you near term bearish if you go long a stock????? no difference..........
