Exactly, I am aware that it is a synthetic call. But the reason I like my strategy better than just swinging the calls outright for swing trades of a few days to a couple of weeks is the fact that the position does not expire on expiration day. So If I was a little early with the position I can...

Not really, I don't get too sophisticated with option strategies. Pretty much just long calls, long puts and the occasional straddle. Not to mention that I use Scottrade and they don't let any naked sales.

Could ya?
