Brief Description of WHY I did this trade and my expectations for it
NO ONE EXPECTED THIS and Im not even sure this is a good trade ... but what I do know is this ... with selling premium we get DOWNSIDE PROTECTION ... with this trade I actually had a BUY LIMIT ORDER in for $160 ... and this thing as with ALL stocks broke right thru that thin ice and I would have been holding the bag! ...Now, NO ONE is out of the water with the DOW being down some -9% right now ... so I allocated 100 shares of money at the $160 strike and gave this 29 days to work itself out. Worse case ... this thing FALLS below my breakeven price of $143 ... GUYS AND GALS, ALL HELL WILL HAVE BROKEN OUT if that happens ... hold on, if this effects you emotionally, TAKE A WALK ... take your mind off it ... the pain is here ... now we just need a BID on these markets and we will probably see on of the greatest snap backs EVER! ... if not, well ... hang in there folks!

Cash Secured Put - Description -The cash-secured put involves writing an at-the-money or out-of-the-money put option and simultaneously setting aside enough cash to buy the stock. The goal is to be assigned and acquire the stock below today's market price. Whether or not the put is assigned, all outcomes are presumably acceptable. The premium income will help the net results in any event. The investor is bullish on the underlying stock and hopes for a temporary downturn in its price. If the stock drops below the strike, the put may be assigned. That would allow the put writer to buy the stock at the strike price. The effective purchase would be even lower: strike price less the premium received. There are two principal risks. First, the stock might not only dip but plummet well below the strike price. The investor must be comfortable with the strike price as an acceptable long-term acquisition price, no matter how low the market goes.
