<I'm trying to better understand your trading philosophy. If you now think INTC is headed for the low $30s, why not buy calls, sell them, and then open up a new put position when INTC peaks? The cyclical nature of INTC over the past year or so would make a call position relatively low-risk, I would think.> I don't buy calls because I think that INTC is in a multi-year down trend. Had I thought that the trend was neutral I would have tried to play the up swings too. Kap
