Puts. That's a whole new thing to learn (I have sold puts so I'm not completely in the dark.) You buy a put and it would (in theory) allow you to buy the stock at a given price before the expiration date. So if the stock goes down you make money buying and then selling the put. I have quite a lot of QQQ (the shares)...I could sell cov calls against that or buy puts for it. Do you do same month? Freeus Another poster wrote me about that too, have to go back and find it.
