I was making an observation of a prudent trading strategy, not necessarily indicating I'd do that.
I live more dangerously with my trading account (that's why I call it my speculative account), and I would not recommend others attempt some of the more risky entries I make, like buying QQQ calls yesterday near the close and looking at doubling that position if we get to NDX 1177.
I have 3-accounts. One is split 1/2 OEX and 1/2 SPX index funds currently, another went long the end of the day today in UOPIX, and the 3rd is in my speculative account, which has an assortment of trash and options.
