Don't forget one advantage of LEAPs over shorter term options. If you keep a LEAP for more than 12 months, the gain qualifies as a long term capital gain for tax purposes.

I just sold my first LEAP puts, Conseco Jan '02 $7-1/2 puts. I think the stock is near a bottom and is way oversold. If I get put, my net price will be only $4-3/8, for a stock that was selling for $50 not too long ago, and is easily worth $30 IMHO.
