Have you in the not too distant past received unsolicited "J" mail ( at your
residence,not herein) from a Nick Guarino. Just curious. I still don't see
what you see wrong with going long the QQQ  on a strong up day or short on a
strong down day and catching 2-4 points.Based on the size I take at one time
that's equivalent to 2-4 or sometimes 4-8 thousand for that day and vise
versa on down days. I don't see why this would conflict with your being
short or expecting a crash. I do get stopped out and I do loss money on some
of  those days. However I would not consider this to conflict with my long
term short position trades or long position trades.
