Bubba:

----->Why wouldn't the put be trading when the stock is?

Dell is traded on the NAZ.
Options on Dell are not traded on the NAZ, but on CBOE, and other regional option exchanges.
This means different MMs as the traders on the option floor aren't really in the same market as each other.

That is a simplistic explanation, and not very clear.
When I'm addressing a professor from Dairyland with the nickname Bubba, I have faith that he has a rare sense of funnin.
As a prof I know he's used to dealing with students with poor explanantory skills but are well intentioned........
Great nick name----makes me feel like you're from next door here in Texas........gggg

Hello,

Good pick on your dell puts. I think the options market opens a little
later. Also In fast moving markets the option pricing dosn't change fast enough. Same thing happened to me. The option price remained the same for a company I bought a put on went down 3 1/4.
