Hi there Mish, I've been trading the April 580 puts on the OEX (OEBPP) and am currently flat. I like the at the moneys because of the liquidity. BTK I don't trade as often, but looking at the chain, I'd go for either the April or May ATM's as well. They have the largest OI and hence the greatest liquidity. The April 440 puts are (BOTPH) and the May 440's are (BOTQH). You'll pay $12 to $15 more per contract for the Mays. FWIW, I read what Allan posted on the CFZ this morning abou possible Naz bounce points and have bought an NDX call...perhaps stupidly. I still feel comfortable with OEX and semi puts though.
