Most options traders view options as only a short term tool. The idea of a highly leveraged tool with the potential to make big bucks quickly appeals to the gambler inside all of us. Just like a card counting black-jack player, options can be used to make consistent short term profits, provided the trader is careful, and knows what they're doing. But while options are usually employed solely by that clique of high-octane traders, they actually have enormous benefits that tend to go unnoticed by many a long term investor.The stock option strategy I'm about to unveil is rarely used. Indeed, I've only briefly heard mention of them on little known websites, and even then, not in enough detail to give an example. So here it is, what I believe may be the best kept secret from long term investors on main street. The stock option strategy for the long term investor.The strategy is a vertical option spread, using leap options.

There is one main question asked by those who are new to the financial markets, and even debated by experienced participants. How do you differentiate between trading and investing? The two are very similar.In my book, The Essentials of Trading, I point out that the only difference is definition. They are the most simple application of capital in the pursuit of profits. If I buy a stock, I expect either to see the price increase, or to earn dividends. In trading, one generally has an exit expectation. This might be in the form of price targeting or in terms of length of time the position will be held. The trade has a finite life. Investing is more open-ended. An investor will buy a company's stock and may never plan to sell.Here is an example. Warren Buffet can be our investor. When he sees an undervalued company, he buys it, and hold on to his positions for as long as he continues to like them. He will not worry with thinking about a price to exit the stock. Think of George Soros, the trader. His famous trade was shorting the British Pound when he though the currency was overvalued and ready to be withdrawn. His position was based solely on circumstance. When the Pound was allowed...more
