Money must be at RISK for a year.
My understanding is you can own a stock for 9 months.
Have puts for 3 months, the go off puts for 3 months and you will satisfy the 12 months.

That is my UDERSTANDING which could be incorrect.

tip, You don't destroy your holding period, you put it in limbo. The IRS assumes and you have to prove differently.

However, let's say you own a bunch of goldies and buy puts on the XAU. Different animals, no loss of holding period. And the XAU puts are cheaper. They correlate, but not exactly.
