Alien, I agree with you here. However, I can't find any 20 puts...I tried April and they only go as low as 25....what month are you looking at?

Hi Alien tech,

you wrote: The best play here today for PSFT is to sell long term puts at the 20 strike, since the premiums are very high.

Why?

I usually own a stock or don't. That kept me up also in bad times. Sure, i diversify in the tech sector and I buy occasionally on margin (right now 27%).

I'm not familiar with puts. Maybe you are willing to explain, what You mean and why Your opinion makes sense to you.

Regards Lutz
