For sure, bear markets are good for trading as long as you don't stay out of the market too long as you'll get burned when you miss just a few good days when it turns. I saw some charts on SA yesterday. If you miss the best ten days of each decade since 1930, you lose a ridiculous amount of return each decade. Only ten days in a decade. I've known that to be true but seeing it graphically made a strong point.
Otter,
I definitely plan to leverage to the upside. I'll have to reach deep so I don't jump in too soon. I sleep just fine paying too much for long shares I intend to keep for 10+ years. Not so much with options.
