With the massive technology rally off the March 23 market bottom, the risk/reward for entering new trades has dramatically shifted. Back then. I was begging followers to load the boat with the best big tech and biotech & healthcare names with call options and two-year LEAPS (Long Term Equity Participation Securities). One reader told me

It was a week when traders and investors alike were confused, befuddled, and gob-smacked. If you believed that the worst Great Depression in a hundred years was worth more than a 12% pullback in the market you were punished, quite severely so if you were short tech stocks.
