Creating short naked puts, i.e. put-selling or put-writing can be an effective and profitable

options trading strategy.

Often the attraction in naked-put selling is the ability to collect premium with a margin of air

if the stock drops and have the ability to purchase stock at a discount to the current market price.

The trouble comes, however, when the stock moves lower and challenges the naked put position,

and today's show is dedicated to helping you understand all the ways you can hedge short naked puts.
