Kayaker, stupid question re your shorting the QCOM Jan 70 put. Does your broker "take out" $70k out of your margin "allowance" or the net of $ 42.90 ? And either way, this amount of money now sits "untapped", ie. can't play with it.

I am just wondering if, from a % return standpoint, it would be more beneficial to go full margin, i.e. buy 2000 shares long and write in the money leap calls ?

.........expanding my horizon ......... :)

thanks,
anna
