jill n(ikita) as in la femme...<ot> margin calls..

you can sell puts and buy stocks with the proceeds, but you cant sell puts, buy stocks, and than use margin....the former gives no margin calls...why because you hopefully sell put at a high implied volatility, buy stock at a low point, they marry and move in concert keeping your capacity most times at or above that point in time...to use margin at a later point in time upsets the balance, especially if it's in an issue that is not part of the "happy union"...too many things going in different directions...

"an army prefers high ground to low, esteems sunlight and dislikes shade. thus, while nourishing its health, the army occupies a firm position. an army that does not suffer from countless diseases is said to be certain of victory"

as in war, as in investing, as in life...you understand! ciao
