MB. I was recently at a conference where a broker for electrical energy options spoke.

He kept saying that in the current market it is almost always much cheaper to establish the synthetic long calls position. If that were true wouldn't that mean there were a heap of money to be made in some kind of arbitrage ... have you ever looked at these?

If you like volatility premiums ... you should check 'em out. They might not have all the liquidity that you're used to, but you said you were a gambler at heart <VBG>
