Need some advice! Shorted AMNZ at 120 and want to protect myself somewhat. Is it better to sell the Sept 120put or buy the call. I'm having trouble understanding the sale of a Put. Thanks.

Hi Zax, But don't short more if you already have exposure! May be you would like to box 100 shares next week when/if Amzn swings to 110 or so and start trading while waiting. You short @143, that would be a sweet box.
