Playing & Trading Strategy

Its not the same as buying a Call. if you short a Put the max you can make is the price when you short it (the put delists at zero).

max loss is OW - Put Strike Price (if its a 40 put and the ow is 100 you would lose 100-40 = 60)

message inside is backwards. 40 strike and its a 30 OW you would lose 40-30 = 10. Max loss is the Strike price. {nm} jwammo Jul 08, 10:47
