If Matt gives a heads up that a system may fire I add puts or
calls to my watchlist so I'm ready to go. I really don't worry if
the strikes are not exactly the same and expiration I go 6 to 8
weeks. I'm not an expert but I can get pretty close by now.

Good idea. What could go wrong?

Good idea.
What could go wrong? As Matt tells us, potential trades can and do disappear. Also, things occasionally go bump in the night with Tradestation.
It's a stressful thing and he does the best that he can do - and it's a good job!
I remember an AAPL trade (yes), a long time ago, far, far away. This one turned out to be a mistake. I reversed it the following morning
and actually made a few $. VERY few .
You know how it goes: Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes you're the tree.
Matt: We appreciate the effort you're making to develop the ETF systems. We hope they come to fruition. Thanks!
