shirt asked:


Ive only done regular stock purchases and sales before with my account. How do I go about in essence playing the stock market and betting it will go down? Are there any good websites to learn how to do this? Any keywords I can search? Thanks for any help!
So I dont get it… I do a put option on a specific stock?

   Remember when you buy long you know how much you can lose, when you short you have unlimited liability

   You can short or purchase put options on market indexes such as DIA (Dow Jones Industrials), SPY (S&P500), or QQQQ (Nasdaq 100).
