Steve, since you are essentially bullish (as most of us on this thread) just buy calls when you sell puts. You always pick great entry points for put selling. Its true the premiums may be a bit rich but I've been amazed at the leverage. You like leap puts; buy leap calls as taxman did, and tho you may not want to go way OTM, somewhat OTM seems very profitable. It sjust that you lose margin capacity--well actually, I don't know who your broker is, the new rule is leaps are supposed tob e marginable but the discount brokers won't do it. Anyway, I have a six bagger on NTAP calls in just over a month.
