Al, the leap puts on AMZN sound like a good play, certainly safer than shorting!

Al,
How can you make money when <<I bought them at 83 when the stock was at 230>> unless AMZN breaks down well before expiration to 20 bucks for example?
If you buy some puts now what is the strike price and how far? Can I buy puts when AMZN climb fast to the top, then sell for gain when it dips...and repeat?
Thanks
