Lot of premium? Do you remember that just yesterday at 8am CL traded 72.60? That is only 36 hours, for 11 days (ignoring a directional bias) that doesn't sound like enough to me.
With the market moving up 6$ so far this week I would think the 75put would be at .85 if there was strong conviction that we are going to move higher. Good example was last Friday I bought 70$ puts for .90 before the market broke lower. After the market broke lower I sold them for 1.65.. If I would have waited 5minutes longer they were going for 2.20.
Maybe they just price higher for were the market has been? [/QUOTE]
That put is up 110% in less than 12 hours. [/QUOTE]
The 75c went from 1.45 to .45
I was looking at it more of not getting killed if wrong. But didn't expect so far so fast
Pretty tame EIA response. I guess everyone was already off to better things. My CL pit broker on Wednesday didn't even realize it had been rescheduled to today until I mentioned to him.
