Ben, Thanks for your speedy answer. Perhaps you can guide me to a data base or a service that can print out the puts and calls that are 18% to 20% out of the money with 30 calendar days or less to expiration and with betas of 1 to 1.25? And also showed the price activity of all optionable stocks for all 30 calendar day periods in the option month say in the last five years to see if these stocks moved more than 18% to 20% in those 30 day periods. Obviously if these stocks with betas of 1 to 1.25 moved more than 18% to 20% in a 30 day period say 15% of the time the shorting strategy might be considered conservative although I realize this is a big IF. Can you help with this request? Thank you, SPARKLE
