not bad but the open interest on puts are pretty high and the most recent up day wasnt on great volume which could be a fake push for put buyers to get in. to be honest, id rather be short here or just not play it. count me out on this one

In my humble experience, whenever GOOG options plays seem like a sure thing, you are about to get hammered.

I legged into a short bull call spread months ago when the stock was rising far above the $600 range, expecting it to cool down. I was stopped out of my position early and then watched GOOG shoot to about $700, thanking God I set tight risk parameters.

With options on a stock like Google, caveat emptor

Going to tank. NVM. Even if the earnings are good still will go down a few points and if the earnings are bad will tank 50-75 pts.
