steve,
No sweat! Already own the 45s. Sold 7 Jul 55 puts & bought 5 Jul 45s when stock was in the 55 trading range. Bought 2 Apr 55 calls when it was trading around 60. Playing small and safe in this market. Just seems to be some way to improve position if stock has a strong runs up. Like buying puts at 60 if stock hits 70 while selling the 45s. Seems the expense sort of kills the profit for a move like that. Appears establishing a new position in addition to the present one would make more sense.
