... for a .43/contract credit.
Notes: The highest background implied on the board in my options liquid exchange-traded funds at the moment, with 30-day at 51.93%. I'm viewing this as a starter position to replace my GLD for exposure to precious metals, since the implied is generally higher, so you get more bang for your buck. There is no December currently, so just doing a "one rung" here. 2.09% ROC at max; 11.56% annualized. A similarly delta'd GLD short put in the same cycle: .871% ROC at max; 4.82% annualized. This is due to GLD's lower implied at 20.8% (30-day).
