Glenn, I like the idea. I continue buying puts, and keep loosing but I shouldn't stop
because persistency and consistency will pay off eventually or at least, will recover a
little bit. Believe it or not I can't write naked calls, and I should call my broker to let me
do that.

This is an an alternative but as you said risk is not minimized. I can vouch due to my maintenance calls again.

Well, it is a good idea to cover some of your shorts and replacing them with options is a
good way to minimize the risk a little bit.


I will impliment this if we see another huge up day. I have no idea where this is going to stop.

Glenn

How does it "minimize" risk?
