Well, I was stopped out of the NFLX puts and lost a little. I think I will get out of nflx for awhile and let the water settle down. I might jump on AMZN or some of the other stocks that are performing better. So now, with the freed up maintenance I will go hunting for a good play.

Take a look at AMGN
hey john know i use power options and its awesome. i referred a friend a month ago to poer opt.
Jerry, great book! I've been selling puts for a couple of years, but never previously considered using maintenance margin in order to go deeper out of the money...changed my way of thinking about risk.
Do you use PowerOptions to do any of your screening? It's a great real-time screening tool that allows lots of filters on both the stock and the option. For example, seconds ago, stocks that show up on my recent screens for January candidates for further analysis included: HAL, FSLR, TCK, ANF, CTXS, CLF.
Thanks again for sharing your method.
Hi John,
Can you elaborate a bit more on this PowerOptions screening? Is PO your platform? I am currently using ThinkorSwim. I would like to have the same type of filter system.
Power Options is a screening tool. It does 90% of the work for me in researching stocks and put option candidates. I also use TOS for my trading.
See www.poweropt.com. They have initial screens you can use and modify.
It's a great tool and real time, too.
