Bob, >>Poking fun Patrick?<< Absolutely not! The synthetic position you describe is a reasonable approach, though as you say, potentially more expensive. The increased risk (at least risk of increasing costs) is if I would need to roll the position forward. Depending on the market it is entirely possible that AMZN hangs around this level for a while, so requiring that roll. Thanks for the tutorial anyway. It's good to have that approach 'validated'. >>If not, be careful what you wish for.<< Sadly, logic doesn't seem to affect stock prices much. So maybe wishing is the way forward. ;-) P.
