hey freeus! "lu puts" do you like the company? wouldn't mind owning the stock? can afford to be assigned? believe it will be over fifty in january? bunch of yes responses to the above should give you motivation. as far as a "good" price, i would look at all the fifty strikes from march to january. see what percent return they would give you if they expire worthless, annualize the return so you can make a comparison....you may find a series of shorter term sales may give you a better return...but it is your decision. barring any future surprise event from lucent,and based on a neutral to positive news environment fifty is low risk....
