Now I kind of understand what GZ's intension.

As everybody has seen, Spiral is a great tool to make big $ in a 40+ points wave, but has difficulty to deal with 20-30 points move especially small ones. Now he uses the shorted options to cover that situation. As long as the market goes nowhere, the options will make $ to offset the loss from the spiral. But you have to use the futures to follow the spiral in case a break out of the range which means big wave.

Great idea. So you know find a way to make up the loss.
