Do you trade with Schwab? I am going to my branch and complain big time. I give them huge business in a variety of things and I am a Platinum options trader, and I am still getting hosed.

I could and maybe will write a book on why options suck. Unless you buy deep itm they don't move right.

June 20 puts.
You should NOT expect much if any move on a mere .30 move for puts that far out of the money, that far out.

However, a move .30 away from you will get you every time.
You often need a .30 move just to break evem. On those puts, especially if you bought into a downdraft or at the open (where you oten overpay), that is what I would expect.
