  2. are you insane? short 200 calls @ 2 = $40K. You said 100K. You are wrong. I am right.

    Or do you still want to dispute 200 @ 2 = 40K?

  3. James,

    Maybe you should start a journal. Those are more protected from attacks. This thread is getting out of hand.

    Thanks.

    Wait a minute, I think I see the confusion here. James are you short S&P options or SPX options. There is a difference. The S&P options have a multiplier of 250 not 100. The SPX have a multiplier of 100. So are these SPX options or S&P?
