13F-HR for option positions

[xyannix]

Hello,

When a company lists call or put options do you actually know if they are long or short the option?

Do i assume it is always a long position or does the sec have rules on recording option positions.

Thank you

13Fs only show long positions. So you will never see a write, only a buy.
