Wayne:

You wrote Seems to me an expirationless option would be the equivalent of buying or shorting an underlying instrument, maybe with margin equivalent to the leverage you would get with an option. The underlying never expires.

Exactly. You have the benefits of the underlying financial instrument at a fraction of the cost and with strike price selectivity. Good point about the margin benefit. I would expect that it should be much less than maintaining positions under Reg. T.

Having your cake and eating it too... works for me.

Happy trading,

TM
