Write a put option, putting down enough cash as collateral to cover the purchase of stock at option's strike price. Often compared to a Covered Call for its similar risk profile, it can be more profitable depending on put-call skew.

A Poor Man's Covered Call (PMCC), or Synthetic Covered Call, is used to generate regular income as per the standard Covered Call, but instead of purchasing 100 shares of stock, a Deep ITM Call (which is often a long-dated LEAP) is bought.

• Purchase a deep ITM long-dated Call
• Write/sell a nearer-dated near-the-money Call
