motr - The Oct $14 Puts

03/17/2011 02:16 PM by Dave Pinsen

MOTR had been on my watch list before its recent drop as a candidate for the short side of a market neutral trade. Today I was looking to add a bearish bet or two as the market recouped a little ground. Most puts I looked were overpriced, but my option calculator estimated a value of $4.18 for the $14 strike, Oct puts on MOTR. Picked up a few at $3.50.

    MOTR up 12.59% today. At least I've got some time w/ the Oct puts.

    Back in black on these MOTR calls, as the underlying is down 15%+ intraday on a big revenue miss.
