On the long side, my portfolio is 100% spread trades right now (many of them BPT ideas). I have been buying deep in the money calls (stock replacement with very little premium) and selling in the money calls so I can enter with some downside protection built in.  Yes, I limit my upside with this approach, but it seems crazy to put new long money to work with the charts looking the way they do right now.
