Hi Herm, Jaytee, et al, been a while, huh? Can I buy a QQQ Jan 03 leap and write calls against it rather than tying up capital by buying the underlying? For example, buy Jan03 50 call for 8.30 and sell the Aug01 50 for $1.10? What are the rules? Does the long option just has to be at a greater strike price? thanks for the responses that I am sure this question will generate. OBTW, OT, leaving for sunny Rapid City, SD tomorrow for 2 weeks of Army Annual Training :) ----------> May the Trend be with You <---------------
