[QUOTE="4course, post: 4474120, member: 2772"] yep ive done the same in the past and found them not to be beneficial( sometimes gained sometimes not1-2 ) unless the price alters by a lot it is only when there is a big movement that is sudden and very unexpected that options come into their own otherwise it is purely insurance and for the likes of me with at most 1500 t with sales spread over 15 months , might just as well do the job myself phyisically and not spend £12000 or £40/acre which although there is a case for using an option away from the price to mitigate a total disaster but last time I looked at that a couple of years ago there was no liquidity but its worth keeping an eye on [/QUOTE]
