Lisa, I am sure that many people feel many ways, but I am talking purely mathmatically.. I can show you how the pricing occurs for a call or a put, there are I think 3 variables that are influencible.. the rest are subject to commonalities... The variables are the Beta, the Sigma and i am forgetting one.. to calculate the pricing of an option, with of course the supply/demand function included. And I still think <MHO> that volitility is much greater on the call side, since it is used as far as raw numbers, more than puts.. of course conditions aside.. just numbers.. calls are used more... I am going to fish up the equations of establishing a value and post them.. I can tell that you are getting a bit uptight about it and need some mathmatical documentation, of which I will provide... No problem!! :}
