I hope it goes to ~7k. I'm getting burned on my put options after that 900pt rally. It looks like a sucker's rally, but the futures are green tonight. GDP and jobless numbers come out tomorrow.

Must. Be. Patient. And. Logical.

You really shouldn't be keeping stocks more than a day or two if you're playing at the moment. It's far too volatile.

If the market goes to 7k, your stock losses will be the least of your worries.

This is true.  What I have is kind of an insurance policy.  If the market recovers in November, I'll lose all of my $400.  If there's a crash this month, my gains will be in the thousands.

More lies.

Name one sector that hasn't declined year over year.

When the market goes into a dive like this, almost everything plunges, from consumer staples to transports to oil stocks.

you= compulsive liar.
