MT is in a frustrating position as a Snider Method investor. In most cases, it has been and will remain in winter until the price appreciates. The reverse split may create additional difficulty in implementing the standard Snider Method. At this time we are not recommending clients sell the shares. If you reach a point where you can sell calls on your shares of MT or the value is similar to your last purchase, please contact us. We will evaluate the position together to decide if transmogrification is the appropriate course to take.
