Last week, I took some VIX calls to hedge my portfolio when the VIX was at 14.10 I took 3 contracts @ $1.50 with a $19.50 strike and Oct 21 Exp. Today, I sold 1/3 contracts for a 25% gain and will continue to hold the remaining 2 contracts Drop your best hedging strategies below in the comments, I'd like to hear others perspectives about this! $SPY

I usually keep it simple and buy Puts on $SPY I have a few that I bought last week expiring the end of this month. Sold half yesterday and plan to hold the rest through the Fed rate decision.

Sell 10 delta cover call against positions , buy a put 10% below avg cost of positions . Than sell a Put $5.00 below the short put strike BTO Deep ITM LEAPS on $VIX roll at 10% profit , STO 21 DTE or 50% profit size according to portfolio size BTO PUTS 10% below avg cost of share
