|

There are differences of opinion on how to compute the potential returns from
|
||||
naked put writing. The method presented above is a more conservative one in that it
|
||||
takes into consideration a larger collateral requirement than the initial requirement.
|
||||
Of course, since one is not really investing cash, but is merely using the collateral
|
||||
value of his present portfolio, it may even be correct to claim that one has no invest
|
||||
ment at all in such a position. This may be true, but it would be impossible to com
|
||||
pare various put writing opportunities without having a return computation available.
|
||||
One other important feature of return computations is the return if unchanged.
|
||||
If the put is initially out-of-the-money, the return if unchanged is the same as the
|
||||
maximum potential return. However, if the put is initially in-the-money, the compu
|
||||
tation must take into consideration what the writer would have to pay to buy back the
|
||||
put when it expires.
