How many of you can think of a stock you wish you had purchased AND HELD?

Buy 1000 sharesOr leaps

14 weeks later we have a double

Sell ½?

Why Not?Stocks versus options – how do we decide?

Some stocks pay dividends

Some stock don’t expire ☺

Some stocks cost more

Can we combine BOTH worlds

I want to build a portfolio that I can pass on

Sell ATM 300p naked 3 months out for $18.55Buy ATM 300c 3 months out for $19.90

Our cost in the trade $1.35 per contract

45 days in – on the break of the 5, around $435 close position BUT—Close by selling 7 contracts and exercising 3We now own 300 shares of BA FREEEE!OR BETTER THAN FREE!!!

Cost Basis ZERO

Our $300c option now have $135 of intrinisicvalue plus the remaining time value

The put option will have some time value left, but not much

Sell 7 contracts at $135 intrinsic value = 94,500Buy 300 shares at $300 per share = 90,000(Buy 300 shares at our contract price of $300)

We now have a cost basis on those shares of -$4500

Other ways to reduce cost basis?Selling naked putsSelling Covered CallsSelling naked putsCollect the dividend

Cost Basis ZERO
