So I have never bought or sold a put.

If I buy $5 Feb19 puts on MBIO - I then have the option to sell them at $5 on that date right? Does it get auto-exercised if below $5? I see the ask a 1.1 right now. What are the pros/cons?



If below $5, you have to buy 100 @5.00.
If you're buying the put you're selling the shares at 5.00 if below 5 at expiration.

Selling the put, you're buying the shares at 5.
Thanks - not sure why puts are so confusing to me but they are!

My bad... I knew that. I just edited my original post so as to not confuse. I thought he was selling them... but he clearly said "buy" up above. Skimmed through it too fast...

I have a line set at $69.20 with an alert set at $68 from here. I will sell into that and not hold any.

$EEM - I have bene tracking this one against SPY and it is almost a mirror image. So IMO if SPY holds this will hold and if it pushes this will continue to mirror it.

Selling the put, you're buying the shares at 5.

It doesn't sound like you're ready to trade, which is fine.

I'd recommend paper trading with fake money (several brokers offer this capability) for a while, to get a feel for the rapid movement, decay, bid/ask spreads, and thinly traded nature of options vs. stock. Test your trading tools, such as limits and stops to get a feel for price behavior. It's riskier, and can be a whole different ballgame, if you're not prepared.

I'd wait for any pullback as the premium is probably still juiced from the run up. If it behaves like previously it will have some retracement intraday and those premiums will be a better entry IMO.

With markets continuing to retest that $377 I took a covered call $70 Feb 19 on 50% of GILD shares, sold 100% of the Jan 22 calls and 25% of all Feb calls on that last push. If markets lose $377 GILD will have some Model T likely, but if markets hold and rally it could blow up even more. This is the risk/reward disciplines.

In between meetings, so I am not sure what is going on, but anyone care to take a look at SSFT? I mentioned it a long time ago as a potential for goal post action , after seeing Farris BABA talk about it on Twitter & the volume. Seems to have come out of the whole pretty aggressively.

Seems the premiums are decreasing on WWR a bit. All of my CC's are dropping today even with a slightly up day.

ha i do paper trading and then when i limp into options it is usually 1 contract here and there to learn it (how i learned calls after starting with covered calls).

I am not buying/selling puts yet. trying to understand it and trading it with paper money but my mind gets twisted with puts. My account can only sell cash covered puts anyways right now

I had closed my BIGC Feb 19 naked puts from $10.40 on decay to under $5. Now I'm looking at April 16 to come back in above $10.

MVIS - I was in the mountains w/ no cell service last week, so I'm about 3k posts behind on this thread. I intend to catch up, but can anyone give me insight on MVIS from the last week. I would like more shares, but my current sold Feb $5.50 puts look like they may expire worthless. If I was going to sell more puts, is there a recommended strike price and time frame?

Thanks in advance for any help!

So much for my greedy fil orders at $4.97 that didn't fill. I did manage to sell Feb $5 puts at the bottom though.

Also, since it was mentioned that Brandon reads this thread....

Can we get some kind of search/button to filter posts by ticker? That would be fantastic and would help with questions like mine above.
