H iSteve,
I've appreciated your thoughtful and intriguing posts and appreciate you discussing your straddle ideas. Have you thought about initiating the straddle you describe and then writing farther out of the money options against the position to decrease the cost to you (with the realization that it also decreases the upside potential)? thanks for your input mark
