%% A small benefit that can work out sometimes ; on the main trend like up/rend on SPY or QQQ or both\ SH can make some profit off inverse [counter-trend ].Especially when SPY or QQQ is aboVe 50dma.................................. I like the super-trend indicator also, LOL not sure that has ever made a lot of difference= but I like the super trend name on the charts
%% LOL sure , aUtomate some stuff, but be polite to the end + longer. IF the hedge like QID[inverse QQQ] drops like a dead duck\ then find something better . Like W Buffet noted on planning , Noah built the Ark before it ever rained .
You forgot, Noah has insider information. As retail trader I don't have inside information, so the smart thing for me is not be Noah but to follow you or @eleanorK80.
%% LOL \OK but not insider info, in the SEC sense; old school boatt builder/LOL, used gopher wood [cypress or cedar] + liked to feed animals, Strange ,SEC fee seems to favor splitting up an order or some smaller MCD Big Mac profits. MCD is an eXpensive way to buy food or coffee, but i do that some!!
Hedging can reduce risk but also has its downsides, like extra costs and potential losses on both sides. Make sure you understand it well before diving in.
