发帖数: 1468 | 5 you have been adding short posiitons since Oct 2010. How deep is your pocket
? If you'd been establishing tiny postions every time, you would be working
for the broker not yourself...

what's the most cost effective to short the general market?
ProShares Short S&P500 (SH)? no time decay with this one?
I guess double short ETFs or put options requires more on timing.

发帖数: 16380 | 7 yes, you are right.
however, for me, there is another consideration. I almost never cut loss. So
if I short SPY, QQQQ, or FAS (which I did) directly, I may end up with huge
loss if the market keeps going higher. So I buy puts, usually slightly in
the money puts 1-3 months away. I do pay time premiums, but my loss is
limited to whatever price I pay up front. I consider that as a natural stop-
loss.
