ETRADE treats naked puts (equities) very differently from naked calls in my experience, at lease a few naked puts don't bring down the nasty phone calls. On another topic, I found this site which provides oex and cboe put/call ratios in a chart. Probably the CBOE number reflects equities only, not index futures, but I need to double check this, and also the nature of the oex put-call number. decisionpoint.com The recent increase in the CBOE put/call ratio combined with a high VIX volatility index may be bullish for covered call writers (?comments). I would like to chart VIX, and put-call ratios together on a daily basis. If anybody knows a better site where a chart like this can be assembled, please give a shout. Thanks - SAF
