Conservative position, using itm puts to hedge
I might be missing something here, in fact I'm pretty sure I am, so if you can shoot some holes in this, please do! What if someone wants to protect his capital and just get a moderate return on it (and no, bonds are no option here, europe). Would it be an option to just go long QQQ for... -

Timevalue of DITM puts
Hmm, that still does not explain why SPY options, even up to dec 31, do have the DITM puts at 0 timevalue, so what would the reason be then? -

How viable is this, and is anyone using this method.

How viable is this, and is anyone using this method.
For slightly longer term swingtrading, several days up to a month maybe, how viable would it be to do this: While attempting to catch a big swing, go long the shares, use 1 long atm put instead of a stoploss (yes i know this is the same as a long call, but hold on..), incase it goes against...
