Actually, Poet, characterizing a thread devoted to derivatives as an auxilliary to G&K is inappropriate, as the approach is on the opposite end of the spectrum from our low risk ltb&h approach.

I disagree. Buying LEAPS that expire 2 1/2 years out with the intention of rolling them over for another 2 1/2 years and doing it again for another 2 1/2 years is a long-term strategy in my mind, at least to the point of it not being on the opposite end of the spectrum. And I also don't agree that Kings are necessarily LTB&Hs, considering how quickly they can hit the brick wall.

I actually like the idea of including a reference to G&K in the title because it narrows it down to the strategies that might be especially applicable to gorillas and kings (or maybe potential gorillas). I'd like to see a relationship as in sister folders be developed so that people who want to discuss the G&K fundies will be referenced here and those who want to discuss shorter-term strategies pertinent to G&Ks be referenced there.

As always, just my opinion.
