### Comment:
Just to be clear the way most WSB uses options as gambling. 
  
 Owning shares and selling calls, hedging long positions with puts, and in some cases selling cash covered puts is far more reasonable.  Risky, sure, but in the end you’re basically using stock as your main investment, not options contracts.

### REPLY:
IMO, you can leverage up a bit if you have long &amp; short, some uncorrelated assets and different timelines for your positions.

### END.
