As in a synthetic long, having a risk profile similar to that of buying the stock? My favorite technique.

No. I put it into reserve as well as maintaining a support account to buy the shares if put upon. At this point, I am being conservative.

Mike...got some advice from a friend and have concluded selling puts far out is not as good a deal as selling them near term because you get the advantage of premium decay near term...not so with put Leaps.

I'm targeting Jan $70's or $60's tomorrow.
