Greg, good post. Don't confuse things by adding covered calls to the mix. The original point that the previous poster made was that selling puts was less margin intensive than buying calls. I had to read through your post a couple of times, but I concluded that you disagree with the previous poster, and that buying calls (as it effects margin) is cheaper than selling puts. You further explained that the potential for return far outweighed the potential for loss when buying calls, and while I agree, that might tend to confuse the argument.

Regards,

LoF
