I rarely use margin at all. Right now I am 10% margin but even that's unusual for me. Hmmmmmm. Don't you use margin as collateral for short puts?

I do not have a problem using margin. I just want to make sure I am not so close that a bad day in the market will bring a phone call wit it. All my short put position now (SEBL, RMBS, SNDK, JDSU) can be covered with cash. I am sleeping well today. Seldom Blue
