There are two other possibilities I use myself... you could write at the money calls on your positions... this way, you have some downside cushion and can still benefit from the trend... also, you would make money even if the market goes sideways while a net long or short position would make nothing... that's one strategy... OR, just take a very light position and use no stops, with a very light position there's less angst about any counter trend move... I do both at different times...
