hive-re: QQQ + hedging ? stockcharts.com[L,A]DACLYYMY[PB10!B30!B50!B200!F][VC60][ILH14,3,3!LE12,26,9!LK14!LL14!LF!LG!LM12] askresearch.com clearstation.com stockconsultant.com Sorry for my delayed reply. QQQ: Wish I could help you. I don't trade QQQ at all, mainly short & long equity options. But, the charts appear quite oversold. Watch Wm%R, hive. This early indicator typically leads a reversal in either direction by a few days. An interesting phenomena of the %R indicator is its uncanny ability to anticipate a reversal in the underlying security's price. The indicator almost always forms a peak and turns down a few days before the security's price peaks and turns down. Likewise, %R usually creates a trough and turns up a few days before the security's price turns up. equis.com Please try to avoid multicolinearity amid indicators, counting of the same information derived from the same series of closing prices to confirm each other. John Bollinger warned against it. My post below contains a little more details. Message 13984744 .................................. Hedging: Bob (rudedog), a brilliant engineer & very successful options trader, used to hedge his portfolio via equity put. He might be able to offer you some details. Heard that some fund managers employed "dynamic hedging" using ATM S&P 500 put, which might involve buying & selling of options during the hedging period. Good luck, hive. di
