Options in the News

• Options expiration (Mar), naked puts on GE, PFE, MT, STD, MDT, TEVA & more
  No surprise that this month’s options expiration was a profitable one. You couldn’t ask for a more perfect scenario after selling naked put options than a rising market and falling volatility, which has been the case now for the last few months.

All of my short naked put options expired comfortably out-of-the-money (OTM), allowing me to book profits on the option premiums I collected when I originally sold the options (see details below). I also adjusted an […]
