Title: [Never Mind] WTB 11.75 Put (expire December 15th, American Style) option on BTC
Post by: LoweryCBS on September 16, 2012, 05:46:12 PM
I'd like to purchase an option to sell 200-500 BTC at 11.75 anytime between now and December 15th.

Trusted members only - I don't require escrow.

$3.92 a coin for 1 block of 100.

(Offer valid for 1 week and whilst price (on gox) remains in  $11.50-$12 trading range.)

Are you planning to pay for the option upfront?

Like if I were to offer you $2.50 per coin option to sell you would pay me $250 now and have the option to sell 100 BTC to me for $1,175.

Let me know. Thanks.

Yes, of course I pay for the option when I purchase it.

This isn't the place to educate you on options theory, tho.

(I caught that last post of yours before you deleted it, BTW)

You weren't clear on your terms is why I asked the question.

Perhaps you should put up a price you are looking to pay for the option.

Oh and yes I deleted that post because I was in the wrong. I misread your post.

Care to troll more? :D

If someone asked me those questions, that's the link I would give them. Not trolling - It's a good website!

Plugged in data and ran a model making some assumptions

I can offer 2.92 for 100 BTC
