Darth; yes. I bought 5 puts as insurance in case the stock went down fast at the last minute. I did not realize that at schwabs discretion they can exercise the options (the third friday of the month)if they are in the money. I have bought stock before that dropped 3 or 4 points that same day. If the stock would have tanked I would have bought back my calls and exercised my puts that same day. I'll think about it tomorrow.
