### Comment:
I think the OP got the terminology wrong, the title says short but in the post he said he went long on puts. This makes me believe he actually sold puts to open. So if BA stays above 300 till 1/17/20 the op will earn 830$

### REPLY:
no i said short the stocks via puts. same thing. both bet on underlying to go down. 
  
 note i am not saying crash all i am saying is correction.
