>>>BTW, My favorite puts this week are EGRP, What are yours?<<< Actually, I found that I prefer shorting and have quit using options. Perhaps this is a combination of finding this thread and Roger's philosophy of keeping some powder dry and shorting more if the price turns against you. I just found myself too nervous about the expiration factor. If you forced me to choose though, I would say Jul20 Avant! puts, which they just recently brought online. Of course you might prefer the 22 1/2s. I believe Avant! is a dead duck and will trade <10 by July. Actually probably sooner than that. Barb
