Edwin 63 Report post Posted February 8, 2016 Has anyone traded the dividend collar strategy with long term consistency of returns? Buy shares the day of the ex-dividend, sell a call and buy a put for even or for a small credit, and then get out and cycle into the next dividend paying stock.

If anything stocks tend to fall a little less than the dividend on the ex-div date as the stock looks optically a bit cheaper now which would hurt that strategy.
