I have seen you refer to hedge wrappers. What intrigues me about them is that nearby calls decay very fast, and a Jan 2005 put, for example, decays very slowly, furthermore in the first half of its life it loses 1/3 of its value. Putting these two options should be profitable.

At my age (60) I am becoming more interested in capital preservation. Do you think that a hedge wrapper is secure enough for someone with my time horizon?
