Zam, >>Tax wise, you would show a loss<<
are you sure about this? If true, it means you can defer paying tax forever while at the same time trading the stock. I am not so sure about that.

>>1) sell covered calls (and if it goes down, you can buy them back, and then sell more...)
2) buy puts<<

"Sell overed calls", upside potential too small. "Buy puts", don't like the idea of expiration. Anyway, my situation is hypothetical.
