I would tend to think that you would limit your put selling (in the cases where you want the stock put to you) to near-term puts, only. It seems to me that it is a huge tax on margin to leave these positions open too long. That's why I used the CREE Feb and Mar positions, over the June. Sure, June pays you more, but if it is your intent to own the sock by having it put to you at your price, then you need to position yourself in the way of the stock's movement. It is much more difficult to time that movement 6 months or a year out, IMHO.
