### Comment:
I had a strategy market goes up x amt I buy puts... market goes down x amt I buy calls. Usually I bought far enough out that the swings were bearable 20k-50k... not this time.

### REPLY:
You remind of me last year. The strategy worked until it didn't work. And just with a few big trades it wiped all the gains and then some more. 
 Now I'm back in the game with much smaller bets. No,more than 10k per trade
