But I cant do that, because the technicals are telling me there is a big drop coming.
On the flip side, I hate to purchase expensive puts, as they are pricey due to the drop today. However, I already took profit from this morning, and the chart says there is more drop to come.
Thus my quandary. Seeing that there was already a drop today and that I would be buying expensive puts, I feel that there could be a good chance of a mini snapback, market up tomorrow, killing my value.
But is always goes back to the market is due to have a few big down days. So this is what Im going to do. I am going to purchase puts on the QQQ close to at the money. If the market rebounds tomorrow, I am going to double down and try to purchase more for cheap when the prices get flattened because of the upday tomorrow if it happens. In other words, I am going to put my money for the dark side as I feel a drop is coming. If the market opens way low and there is a riotous drop in the morning tommorrow, I will jump in with a double down of put options. So lets kick this off with a QQQ Jan to give us time at the money (close to it) put:
