When the stock is say $9 there is only $1 put premium at $7. The trick is to sell puts when the stock is cheap and to hedge what you sold when the stock is expensive. I prefer hedging to covering to keep the tax man away.

Speaking of happy suckers, I'm still trying to figure how who in their right minds would want to buy your $15 puts for $7 a pop. The mentality of option buyers still confounds me.

That's the beauty of it. Be a seller.
