I'm looking at writing SPX strangles and i'm surprised at disparity of pricing between the OTM puts vs. calls.

For instance, SPX is at 1058:
Mar 950P = 10.10
Mar 1150C = 5.20

Am I missing something here? Why are the puts priced so much higher?
You can get 8.10 for a Jun850P. That's 200 SPX points OTM!!
