Okay, so I'm still fuzzy on this whole "put" thing. So by buying July $35 puts, for $5.40, you're betting Intel stock will be <=$29 in July, or at the end of July, or what?

Kap, why July $35 INTC puts for $5.40, when you could have gotten July $32.5 INTC puts for $2.70? Wouldn't buying the $32.5 puts give you better leverage?

11:36 ET Intel Intraday (INTC) 29.90 +1.38: -- Update -- -- Technical -- After gapping higher the stock has remained in a range near its 50 day sma (29.92) and its 200 day sma/50 day ema (29.5). Sustained posture above the latter level over the very short term leaves it positioned for follow through upticks. Initial resistances are at 30.40 and 30.75 with a strong ceiling near 31.4.

Re: Got some Jul $35 INTC puts for $5.40

What's your exit strategy on these puts? Looks like they're down around 20%. Do you bail out at a certain % loss, or will you hang on assuming a dip back down into the $20s? I don't play with long puts, so I'm curious how you handle the ones that turn against you.
