Stocker, That seems like a pretty good idea, especially now that the market has dropped over 50% from the highs and many stock a lot more.

To me it seems your strategy may be a good strategy for a stock like CIEN, JNPR, AMCC, CLS, SLR or JDSU---ones with expensive options....being careful enough to buy only companies that will do well longer term. I have never tried this but am going to look at that approach for certain stocks.

Just buying long term calls may be good for lower PE big cap techs and some other slower growth sectors(5% to 20% y/y).
I prefer to buy calls on stocks stocks like NT, SUNW, MSFT, INTC types.
