If the market dropped 40-50% from right now.


I would not get a margin call.
I would be completely fine.
That is not luck. That is keeping ratios in check.
The rule is simple.
Total dollar amount on hook for put assignments.
Divided by your 7 day liquidity.
Market expensive (PE 20-22+): Stay under 40%.
Market fair value (PE 17-19): 40-50% is fine.
Market cheap (under PE 14): Go up to 65%+.
Right now the market is a little lofty.
So I keep powder a little drier.
Best setups only.
Nothing sloppy.
When it gets cheap. I deploy more.
When it gets expensive. I pull back.
That is how you survive volatility.
That is how you are still here in 10 years.
Ratios in check. Always.
