Here is my thought for now combing a few methods.

Ideally I'll put on the index puts Mon or Tues,
I have scaled down 401k lousy breadth laggard mutual funds to 20% cash
and will do a little more Mon and Tues.

My cycles are bad and should produce one of those fake corrections at least for Jan.

I will buy it of course.

The stock account will continue cost averaging weekly with a couple protective Feb puts
to cover Jan.

I am branching the stock cost averaging into some dividend items that became
better values since the RUT push started in June. Keeping my 3D printers and
advanced manufacturing stocks, hoping to add to them in Jan decline by cost averaging
but a cross section of different dividend stocks now. Only so much money to use for this
because I want to buy a $2000 gold piece on any down day coming up, maybe the 31st.

I have a cross section of low cost stock calls for Mar and Apr, the observation
is that the stocks are up and premium is sucked dry, they are setting up to take it down in Jan.
I just kept these for tracking, will sell them Mon or Tues.

If it happens this way the next peak in Apr could be the bigger one.

I am holding out the liquidation until January 2014. That will postpone tax payments for another year. Very small possibility of a correction during next few days. Tax deferred accounts already sold out.
