remember that 20% number is just something I noticed, it is by
no means a hard number. The higher the better actually.
Like on Monday morning the market had a 50 point rally off
the Friday lows, that was double the move of the previous bounces
of 23 points.
Remember this is not an exact science, I just noticed anything
say 10% or less is just noise, and 20% has a chance.

Totally understand. I was simply trying to reiterate (if anyone
was reading my post) that symmetry is pretty "squishy." I did
not go long, btw. In fact I bought a QQQ put and as price continued
down I sold a lower QQQ put for more than what I paid for the first
put. So it's a winning trade no matter what. I try to enter spreads
that way anytime I can.
Now, yesterday's 53 pt up move becomes the bounce symmetry to
beat before going long. So I won't be getting bullish until that
happens.
