THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM!


The herd flocks to buy puts (downside protection) when the market falls.
You can see the trend up the last few months on this chart as the market fell.
Then as the market rebounded in the last few weeks, nobody wants to buy puts anymore...
This is why retail investors do so bad.
They invest emotionally.
You should not wanna buy puts as the market is falling and becoming cheaper…
You should want them more now as the market is a little expensive…
Humans continue to be emotional by buying high and selling low...
