[ConservativeOptionStrategies] Re: Covered calls with collars

 

ken,

regarding the short put paper: i now manage the leap long puts differently.

when i sell a 90 day put i immediately buy a leap ditm put for protection risking no more than 10% of capital. there is no margin requirements in that position. with the ditm put it is a good thing (not bad) if the stock increases in value. i manage the leap put to decrease my risk when the underlying reaches the strike value of the leap put. i stc the leap put and bto another leap put that again is ditm. each time i do that my risk decreases and i continue selling 90 day puts. drjoe
