Option stuff ... Microsoft & others

One can 'mix & match' their option position to take advantage of the differences in how options are priced in relation to the underlying security. This person summarizes one approach quite well:

Message 10514370

Observing this, one could review a position they've maintained for some time, and with some innovations in their strategy, unlock some of the potential gains they've made. As the above poster points out, the speculative value of the LEAP being discussed has approached zero. Exploiting this 'no cost' asset, one could write a 'covered' short position with no cost and pocket the premium.

Again, this must fit your overall portfolio goals.

Cheers, PW.
